"One of contemporary literature's major works... You have to open this book" -- Ali Smith "Fantastically funny... As a practitioner of the novel, Marias has few peers at the moment...Marias is a deeply necessary writer, a crusader, funny, pungent, full of wrath and love" Guardian "Unquestionably the most significant Spanish writer of his generation... Your Face Tomorrow is a rich, haunting, intriguing, sometimes frustrating meditation on the significance of our lives that also shines an unforgiving light on a too-often forgotten bloodshed" Observer "By turns ebullient, snappish, lyrical, self-delighting and chilling... Marias's fiercely perceptive novels are among the best work being produced anywhere at the moment" Independent on Sunday "This trilogy must be one of the greatest novels of our age" -- Anthony Beevor
