Momo - English Edition

Libro Usado, Tapa Blanda. Momo is a young orphan girl of mysterious origins who lives alone in the ruins of an ancient amphitheater on the outskirts of a bustling city. She possesses a rare and magical gift: she is an extraordinary listener. By simply paying attention, she helps her neighbors resolve conflicts, sparks the imagination of local children, and brings peace to anyone who speaks with her.The harmony of the community is shattered when the sinister Men in Grey arrive. These ghostly, cigar-smoking agents represent the "Timesaving Bank" and convince the townspeople to surrender their lives to productivity, stripping away all joy, friendship, and leisure under the guise of "saving time." As the city falls into a cold, mechanical existence, Momo stands as the ultimate threat to their corporate conspiracy. With the help of Professor Hora (the Master of Time) and Cassiopeia (a magical tortoise who can see thirty minutes into the future), Momo must embark on a perilous journey to the depths of the Source of Time to defeat the thieves and restore freedom to humanity.
