Praises
«Maians Island is an excellent collection of stories. The author’s style has definitively found here rhythm, precision and measure… A voice that is carefully calculated, wise, cultured and perfectly amusing».
El Urogallo, Madrid
«It is as if Kafka and Borges had been Monzó’s jolly schoolfellows».
Dagblad, Helsingborg
«With this third volume of short stories, Monzó achieves complete control of his art».
La Vanguardia, Barcelona
«These stories are genuine masterpieces… Without a doubt, Quim Monzó is one of the most interesting figures on the family tree of modern European narrative».
Aftonbladet, Estocolm
