«Like Don Quixote, this is a chivalric novel, seasoned with the humour of an author with wit in spades. Besora grew up with the toxic style of the great US underground cartoonists, the “Weirdo” gang, and you can tell.» Timeout
«An heir to Rabelais, Cervantes, Sterne and Swift, Besora has conceived his novel as a giant neo-baroque container with room for everything and more besides. The combination of events, registers, genres and characters is manic in its variety.» Pere Antoni Pons, Ara
«This novel is here to atone for a glaring oversight in the history of Catalan literature, reviving a tradition that has seemed all but dead since the time of Tirant lo Blanc, since any language deserves, at the very least, two great satirical novels; and this one is so Catalan it hurts.» Montserrat Serra, Vila Web
