This is the story of Nour, a little girl who didn’t have a family or a home. She lived on the street somewhere far away and long ago.
Sadly, when you’re the main character in a book, you can’t escape from your story and go off and find a happier life… Or can you?
Nour’s Escape brings Nour, a character in a book, out of the tormented pages and into a world where she is free.
Recently published in Catalonian, translated by Valèria Macías Pagès and published in a beautiful edition by Mosaics Llibres, this is the first time Nour’s Escape has been published in English.
