«A choral piece in the tradition of the great family histories, like Natalia Ginzburg’s Family Lexicon or Thomas Mann’s Buddenbrooks.» Anna Carreras, Núvol
«A delightful novel. Maria has a way of writing the grabs hold of you. It’s very well written. A festive read.» SÃlvia Cantos
«It’s one of those books that works its way inside of you. What we have here is a mighty novel. It’s a nicely constructed story, with many points of view, carefully dosed out.» Eva Piquer, Rac 1
«A story that shakes and beats you.» Xavier Graset in Más 324
«Brava, Maria! Estimada Mirta is—even though some may want a text based on characters’ emotions and actions—a book about pacifism, about collaborationism, about supposed neutrality and the value of living in community. A profoundly political text. A lovely example of literature in opposition to indifference.» Sebastià Portell in ARA
