M'hi nego is a novel by Norwegian author Per Petterson, translated into Catalan by Carolina Moreno Tena. The story narrates the reunion of two childhood friends, Jim and Tommy, thirty years after drifting apart. This chance encounter unleashes a series of memories that explore themes such as friendship, orphanhood, and the difficulties of adult life. Through the voices of Jim, Tommy, and the younger sister of one of them, Siri, the novel examines how time and circumstances can separate people, and how the past is always present, influencing the present.
