A distinctive Welsh novel, fluently translated, which tells the tale of two characters: Melog says he is an exile from Laxaria, a country colonised by Sacria, which has destroyed all Laxarian books. He is found by Dr Jones. Drawing on themes like non-communication and oppression, a tender story of friendship is developed, alongside a satire on people's intentions and purposes.

Nofel wedi'i chyfieithu, ac iddi naws arbennig, sy'n adrodd stori dau gymeriad: dywed Melog ei fod yn ffoadur o wlad Laxaria, gwlad dan orthrwm gwlad arall o'r enw Sacria, sydd wedi llosgi llyfrau Laxaria i gyd. Daw Dr Jones o hyd i Melog ac mae cyfeillgarwch yn datblygu rhyngddynt. Dyma stori am orthrwm a diffyg cyfathrebu, ynghyd a sylwebaeth goeglyd ar fwriadau pobl gwahanol.
