«Un» is a children's story by Christine Nöstlinger, published by Xerais in hardcover (48 pages, in Galician).
Mr. Un owns nothing and no one: no family, no friends, no home, not even a name. He wanders through warm countries, for he adores the sun, until an illness drives him to take refuge in the home of a woman in the north. There he is happy, but nostalgia for the sun pushes him back onto the road. A tale about freedom and the joy of living, with tenderness and humor.
Translated from German into Galician by Franck Meyer, with illustrations by Enjamio, in the Merlín collection.
Recommended for young readers aged 9 and up, especially lovers of stories with sensitivity and humor.
