Features: "Momo" is a little girl of unknown age and origin, possessing extraordinary "hearing." She can solve the problems and disputes of her friends by simply listening to their despairing hearts or their arguments in natural circumstances. She can even make villains confess their schemes. Due to being deceived by Mr. Grey, who is everywhere in the city, people begin to obsessively pursue a so-called rational and mechanical life, abandoning family bonds and conscience. Therefore, Momo risks her life to meet Dr. Horo, the Time Lord, and in the Kingdom of Time, she discovers the great secret of the world and humanity: "Time is life." The birth of life is like the blooming of a flower, and when life ends, the same life flower will bloom again. Momo, who understands this solemn and sacred secret of time, returns to the real world to bravely fight against the Mr. Greys and ultimately wins. Can a lone girl, who is so weak, defeat the powerful modern demon—the Mr. Grey? Isn’t that truly incredible. Yet, this story is constantly playing out in the inner world of every modern person. The power of the spirit far exceeds the temptation of materialism—that is the secret of Momo’s victory. Momo is the best source for interpreting time in modern society, a remarkable book that delivers a sharp critique of modern materialism. It expresses boundless love for humanity and a strong yearning for the return of human nature, making it a classic work of fantasy literature that moves both adults and children.
