BENJAMIN MARKOVITS, THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

"Exhaustive and self-contradictory while suggesting some core of consistent purpose ... He's...interested in the tropes of the genre, like a writer of westerns using the frontier as the setting for a morality tale ... A tension you can feel throughout Marías's work: between the need to fictionalize the world so you can bear it, and the need to realize what's going on so you can act."


ANTHONY CUMMINS, THE OBSERVER (UK)

"Central to all Marías's effects is his style. This is an interior novel, less about deeds than the guilty turmoil of thought, portrayed in long fluid sentences ...Seductively conversational and glinting with slantwise humour...as well as contradictory and grandiose, the torrent of reflection sweeps away the thought that even a closely printed novel of more than 600 pages might start taking care of itself when the writer gets into this kind of groove. And as the tale at last reaches its action-packed denouement, there's something inescapably poignant about all these drawn-out deferrals, the never-ending clauses and caveats. Keep them coming, you think, knowing there's no more left."
