"In Casariego's witty, thought-provoking novel (translated from Spanish by Bunstead), a man plagued by anxiety attacks resolves to live a full, happy life... Casariego succeeds at giving vibrant life to Anton and his world by using a complex, unorthodox narrative structure."-Kirkus Reviews; "Right from the start, Anton Mallick... was a book that just clicked with me, and I greatly enjoyed the time I spent in the world of the confused Spaniard."-Tony Malone, Tony's Reading List; "I would certainly recommend giving it a go as it is a very rewarding and enjoyable read."-The Friendly Shelf; "A sparkling novel that should be read if you're looking for something to boost your spirits or even make you roar with laughter." -Babelia; "A clever novel, full of humor. A tragicomic mixture, incredibly modern in its narrative structure, that effectively parodies the triviality of our world today through an investigation of an impossible happiness." -ABC
