PositiveThe Irish Examiner (IRE)The novel is narrated by a character called Javier Cercas, a figure so self-deprecating and likable that the reader is immediately on his side ... if it is written like a novel, with characters that come alive, vibrant conversations and memorable incidents, then it is a novel ... we should take this less-than-riveting overload of information in the spirit in which it is intended: as factual evidence of the chaotic material from which ‘history’ is painstakingly, but often incorrectly, written ... a fine and stimulating meditation on the nature of heroism, war, and self-sacrifice.
