Roberto Bolano

2666

Buch

Santa Teresa, on the Mexico-US border, is an urban sprawl that draws in lost souls. An emblem of corruption, violence and decadence, from which, over the course of a decade, hundreds of women have mysteriously, often brutally, disappeared. Told in five parts, 2666 is the epic novel that defines one of Latin America's greatest writers and his unique vision of the modern world. Conceived on an astonishing scale, and - in the last years of Roberto Bolaño's life - with burning, visionary commitment, it has been greeted as his masterpiece, surpassing even his previous work in inventiveness, imagination, beauty and scope.

Über den Autor

Roberto Bolaño was born in Santiago, Chile, in 1953. He grew up in Chile and Mexico City. His first full-length novel, The Savage Detectives, won the Herralde Prize and the Rómulo Gallegos Prize, and Natasha Wimmer's translation of The Savage Detectives was chosen as one of the ten best books of 2007 by the Washington Post and the New York Times. Bolaño died in Blanes, Spain, at the age of fifty. Described by The New York Times as the most significant Latin American literary voice of his generation, in 2008 he was posthumously awarded the National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction for his novel 2666.
