Description
Three fiercely original tales. An unexpected treasure from the vault of a revolutionary talent. Roberto Bolaño's boundless gift for shaping the chaos of reality into fiction is unmistakable across these three novellas. In `Cowboy Graves, Arturo Belano - Bolaño's alter ego - returns to Chile after the coup to fight with his comrades for socialism. `French Comedy of Horrors finds a seventeen-year-old recruited into a secret society of artists in the sewers of Paris. And in `Fatherland, a young poet reckons with the fascist overthrow of his country, as the woman he is obsessed with disappears in the ensuing violence. TRANSLATED BY NATASHA WIMMER`His work is as vital, thrilling and life-enhancing as anything in modern fiction Sunday Times`Fascinating... A rare opportunity for the reader to witness the creation of a seemingly inexhaustible body of work El Pais
