Critical Insights - Roberto Bolano

The New York Times once hailed Chilean poet and author Roberto Bola¤o as ?the most significant Latin American literary voice of his generation.? As author of such acclaimed works as Los Detectives Salvajes, 2666, Amuleto, and Una novelita lumpen, Bola¤o led an unsettled, turbulent life full of revolution and provocation?tones that burst through in every word he wrote. This volume examines that life, as well as Bola¤o?s literary politics and influences.
