Junil a les terres dels bàrbars

"Once there was a man who despised his daughter." Junil glues papyri in her father's bookstore and learns to read in the shadow of her contempt. But the father died, the rage died; and it is precisely the daughter who has conceived the crime. Junil flees on foot with three slaves. They cross the border of the Empire and learn to grope through the world, where gods and tongues vary. As they advance, the mere desire to walk overshadows the fear and spreads to other fugitives. The impulse that moves them is encrypted in the verses of an exiled poet.
