«Irmán do vento» is the young adult novel by Manuel Lourenzo González, published by Edicións Xerais in paperback (208 pages, in Galician).
Khaled is a boy from a remote village in Iraq who leads an ordinary life, with family, friends and plans for the future, until war erupts and destroys everything. The novel follows the destruction of his world and his determination to regain dignity and hope, using two narrators who alternate the action and the protagonist's voice to show how childhood suffers in an armed conflict.
Winner of the 2003 Merlín Prize and the Frei Martín Sarmiento Prize, it is part of the Fóra de Xogo collection from Edicións Xerais.
A novel suitable for young readers aged 14 and up, particularly for those seeking fiction about childhood in war contexts.
