At Anagrama, the novels To whom it may concern: "Necessary. It makes the ground tremble a little while we read it. And once closed, the ground continues to tremble" (Juan Bonilla, El Mundo); The Living (Herralde Novel Award 2011): "Dazzling. Major and definitive work" (Joaquín Marco, El Mundo); I Ate: "A feast of digression and style" (J. Ernesto Ayala-Dip, El País); "Honest and coherent, politically incorrect and alien to verbosity, to cliché or to easy ideological wink" (Iñaki Ezquerra, El Correo); and Echeverría; the chronicles of One Moon: "The best current chronicler of Latin America: a superb interviewer, a traveler endowed with encyclopedic culture and a fine irony" (Roberto Herrscher, La Vanguardia); and Against Change. A hypervoyage to the climate apocalypse: "A strong reagent for sensitive souls or friends of the politically correct" (Leila Guerriero, El País); "Convinces as much as it seduces" (E. Paz Soldán, La Tercera, Chile); and the essay The Hunger: "Much more than an essay, much more than a novel, because Caparrós uses literature to accompany us to a hell made of a reality that is often only given distracted attention" (Roberto Saviano); "A book that will surely be important. A book that was missing" (Agustín Fernández Mallo, El Mundo)
