Críticas:
"Written in deliberately bad English, this is a wonderful comic romance" (Eileen Battersby Irish Times)
"An utterly captivating, and disorientating, journey both through language and through love" (Independent)
"Guo uses her minimalist messed-up prose not just to tell an affecting coming-of-age story but to ask deep questions about the real differences between Chinese and British culture and language" (Independent on Sunday)
"Funny and charming...more than a love story; its psychology is politically acute, and things noted lightly in it linger in the mind" (Guardian)
"It is impossible not to be charmed by her matter-of-factness. As the story grows in complexity with Z's growing vocabulary - the narration acquires fluency and tenses almost imperceptibly - it is equally hard not to be impressed by Guo's vivacious talent" (Sunday Times)
