Since the publication of The Savage Detectives in 2007, the work of Roberto Bolaño
(1953-2003) has achieved an acclaim rarely enjoyed in contemporary fiction. Chris
Andrews, a leading translator of Bolaño's work into English, explores the singular
achievements of the author's oeuvre, engaging with its distinct style and key thematic
concerns, incorporating his novels and stories into the larger history of Latin American
and global literary fiction. Andrews provides new readings and interpretations of
Bolaño's novels, including 2666, The Savage Detectives, and By Night in Chile while
at the same time examining the ideas and narrative strategies that unify his work.
... Written in a clear and engaging style, Roberto's Bolano's Fiction offers an invaluable
understanding of one of the most important authors of the last thirty years
