A force of nature.
*ABC*
Punk rock has arrived in Spanish literature.
*El Pais*
Offensive, playful, transgressive, hilarious, visceral, combative,
brutal, and yet somehow tender... A book that shook me to my
core.
*Esquire*
The most brutal, provocative and hilarious voice in contemporary
Spanish literature. Like an unexpected meeting between Kathy Acker
and Camilo José Cela in a gynaecologist's waiting room.
Extraordinary.
*Paul B. Preciado*
A radical, radically original novel with no precedent in Spanish
literature. Remarkable for its recreation of orality, its
extraordinary characters and its reading of the current political
climate.
*Jury for the Herralde Prize*
