Mi chiamo Nako
by Guia Risari, Paolo D’Altan (illustrator)
Description
The book is a small masterpiece of literary and figurative art. The drawings, realized by Paolo D’Altan, a true master of illustration, and the text, poetic, scratchy and delicate at the same time, make the story of Nako - a Roma child - a story on which young and old can confront each other on worlds other than their own. Worlds more judged than really known. What Nako says highlights the dreams and sufferings of those who experience distances and exclusion every day, but at the same time opens the curtain on ancient traditions, languages and hopes. For those who believe in authentic life and the value of differences, the book is a social and cultural adventure to live.
