La Verdad (España)
The Argentinean writer knows the secret, and he uses it, to tale the story with a language full of light, rich, clear, sensual and precise. In addition to this gift he has, let’s talk about his surprising imagination, with subjects and characters that, if in this novel have historical pretensions, they are not or it doesn’t matter because the powerful of its main characters gives more importance to the plot. A love and resignation plot, a crazy passion, sex and death one. Christine and Aurelio give up to carnal love in the name of spiritual one. Yes, but reality rules.

Federico Andahazi is a great author. He studied Psychology, and something from that profession must still stay in his mind, because his novels go as deep as it’s possible. (…) Perfectly built characters, a real rigorous investigation work and a real skill in the use of the words turn City of heretics in one of the greatest publishing hits of the year. Andahazi marked with The anatomist a new way of understand historical novel. And, after a few works in this genre, he proves that The anatomist was not just a coincidence.
