En mayo de 1937, tras el bombardeo de Guernica, miles de niños vascos partieron del puerto de Bilbao hacia el exilio. Entre ellos se encontraba Karmentxu, una niña de ocho años que fue acogida en Gante, Bélgica, por el escritor Robert Mussche. La vida de Robert cambiará con la llegada de la niña, su implicación en la resistencia durante la Guerra Civil y el advenimiento de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Esta novela, heredera de Sostiene Pereira de Tabucchi o El último encuentro de Sándor Márai, es la historia que el propio autor le cuenta a su mejor amigo, recientemente fallecido, «la historia de un héroe anónimo, de esos que vemos por la calle». La voz cálida que da forma a Lo que mueve el mundo susurra lo esencial para recuperar lazos familiares perdidos, en un relato que hilvana las escenas, guarda los silencios del olvido y recrea el instante fugaz con la sensibilidad, la ternura y el talento narrativo de Kirmen Uribe.
