David Nel·lo has today received the Edebé award for The Chronicle of Ivo Kroach a magnificent story about the exodus and exile. Nel·lo puts himself in the shoes of a family of beetles that have to flee away from the hotel where they are installed. Death and exodus are the subliminal messages of this childhood story that maintains a subtle humor in all its pages.
Nel·lo shines in the tone and point of view of the story when choosing the main character beetle as the narrator of this unique story:
"Telling the story from within, unlike a traditional fable, makes it different."
