Para el lector español, Quim Monzó es ya conocido como un narrador de primer orden. Con el presente libro descubrirá la agudeza y el sentido común que le han convertido asimismo en articulista de cabecera de miles de lectores. Monzó comparte desconciertos, ridiculiza petulancias, se subleva contra la corrección política y constata la amenaza del gregarismo. Con irreverencia y rigor, Monzó combina la causticidad, el escepticismo, una competencia de forense y una prosa periodística que Joan de Sagarra calificó "de primera calidad". El tema del tema reúne los mejores artículos que Monzó ha publicado en La Vanguardia y Magazine los años 1999, 2000 y 2001.

Un gran llibre en llengua catalana/ valenciana, humorístic a la mateixa vegada que reflexiu, m'agradat moltisim, es el segon llibre de Quim Monzó que llig i encara vull llegir molts més.
