Un bambino morto a cinque anni osserva il mondo da un altrove misterioso. È uno spirito senza pace, ma non malvagio, legato indissolubilmente alla famiglia che, senza saperlo, ha determinato il suo destino. Attraverso i suoi occhi e la sua voce tenera, ironica e malinconica vengono ricostruiti cento anni di drammi, amori, partenze e ritorni: la storia dei Moranda, una famiglia calabrese attraversata da sciagure e da unumanita ruvida ma autentica. Dal crollo di un orfanotrofio nel 1887 che da il via a un legame invisibile quanto potentissimo fino alle conseguenze delle due guerre mondiali, passando per il terremoto di Messina del 1908, lemigrazione, la poverta, la vergogna, la speranza. Il romanzo segue generazioni di uomini e donne segnati da lutti improvvisi, fallimenti, solitudini e partenze, capaci sempre di rialzarsi. Al centro di tutto ce il mistero di quel bambino: chi era? Perche osserva e racconta proprio questa famiglia? Qual e il filo che lo lega a loro, e cosa cerca nel raccontare ogni dettaglio delle loro vite? Ispirato a una storia vera, con uno stile vibrante e intimo, e venature di umorismo amaro, la narrazione intreccia realta storica e memoria personale, affidando a un narratore non vivente il compito piu difficile: dare voce allassenza e rendere eterno il ricordo.

Este é un libro pouco ortodoxo, talvez como era a propia Begoña Caamaño, a quen se lle dedica o Día das Letras Galegas 2026. Éo, porque nestas páxinas aparece a voz de Morgana, que nos revela os anos da infancia da escritora que tanto influiron nela, periodo de formacion onde o barrio do Calvario ocupa un lugar primordial a traves da sua historia, das suas xentes e dos acontecementos mais importantes que deixaron pegada nas suas ruas.Un libro onde se mestura a memoria, a biografia, a historia e a ficcion, que se brinda como unha oportunidade para reconstruir, e reivindicar, os primeiros anos de Begoña Caamaño. Se como Rilke afirmaba que na infancia esta a patria das persoas, aqui desvelanse as claves da protagonista das Letras Galegas 2026, navegando por ese ronsel de talento e amor que deixou nas persoas que tratou.
