«El caballero inexistente» is the novel by Italo Calvino, published by Siruela in 1997 in paperback (135 pages, in Spanish).
In Charlemagne's army, Agilulfo is a knight who exists only through his force of will: his armor is empty and his voice sounds metallic. With a fable-like tone and humor, Calvino explores identity, the distance between being and appearing, and the reasons for love, revenge and human bonds.
Original title: Il cavaliere inesistente. It is part of the trilogy Nuestros antepasados, together with El vizconde demediado and El barón rampante.
For those interested in fantastic fables and Italian narrative with philosophical depth.
