"Spanish literature has found its phenomenon" * Le Figaro Litteraire (France) * "A pure concentrate of emotion and intelligence . . . Unforgettable" * Marie Claire (France) * "Full of subtle wisdom" -- Carmen Posadas * Harper's Bazaar * "[A] summery, sexy, cool debut novel...light, profound, sensual, unmistakably European: this may be the only book about grief to feel like a vacation." * Kirkus Review, *Starred* * "Busquets has a compelling, original voice. [She] is a brilliant showstopper - just as you're laughing at Blanca's breezy sarcasm, her expletive-infested brio, she catches your throat with a thought so disarmingly sad it turns the room grey. The worst thing about the death of a mother, she says, is not that you won't ever see her face again but you will never again be seen through her eyes. Therein lies the true loneliness of losing a parent!" * Big Issue *
