Masterful

"Masterful is a discourse, a satire, a pamphlet, a diatribe. It is the language of an apocalyptic and suicidal king abdicating his seat, his language, the Spanish language, because he can't tolerate the mediocrity acquiesced to by the average writer and reader. - Diego Sánchez Aguilar

[He is] neither avant-garde nor marginalized, neither quirky nor any other lazy or easy label. Rubén Martín Giráldez is simply a highly original writer, and his Masterful (entertaining, sadistic, and verbose) demands interpretive insolence. A lure that all audacious readers should get hooked on. -Gonzalo Torné
