Cogent and insightful The Guardian
Deeply moving Del Molino writes with a soft touch, and his political, literary and cultural world is richly resonant throughout. The Spectator
Compelling While he sometimes wishes he were invisible, del Molino bares his own skin in this reflective, sometimes digressive, beautifully written book. The Sydney Morning Herald
Sergio del Molino's beautifully written account of skin and its complications is the starting point for a profound reflection on human imperfection and how we deal with it. Drawing on personal experience, while always striving for social and political meaning, it ranks among the best books I've ever read.' Andreas Hess, University College Dublin
When you pick up this book you must realise one thing: The book is written so masterfully that you won't read it, rather you will scratch, pick and obsess your way through it. Skin is memorable because you live every character and experience in it through your body's own reactions of discomfort, self-consciousness and transient relief. Nina Jablonski, Pennsylvania State University
A beautifully written book. It is as raw, lyrical and paradoxical as our most human organ. Sergio del Molino has a rare skill in using our outer surface to express the richness of the human condition. Monty Lyman, University of Oxford
Brave, naked, touching. A work of stark and ravishing lucidity. Epic. Irene Vallejo, author of Infinity in a Reed
An elegantly written work informed by history, psychology, philosophy and sociology, Sergio del Molinos book is in the main a humane, sensitive and insightful study of the disorders to which our human skin is prey. Society
