This new novel by award-winning author Lluís Prats is based on the life of a character known as the doctor of Lampedusa, who took care of thousands of migrants arriving on the Italian island. Kambirí is an African girl who loses her mother on their Mediterranean crossing. The doctor decides to adopt her with the help of the manager and regulars at his local restaurant. Written in intense prose with poetic touches, and featuring carefully drawn characters and settings, Kambirí is an emotionally charged look at one of the most important social and political questions of our time.
