Presents, in its Slipcased Harcover Edition, Roberto Bolano's "El Tercer Reich" in a felicitous English translation. His serial novel, published as one complete volume. Discovered among Bolano's papers in 2009, he wrote it in 1989, but never published it in his lifetime. Why he did not will remain a mystery because it is "vintage-quintessential" Bolano. "From the first sentence, the novel bears his hallmarks. The irony, the atmosphere of erotic anxiety, the dream logic shading into nightmare, the feckless, unreliable narrator; all prefigure his later work. The young novelist must have been exhilarated, and possibly alarmed, to discover his talent so fully formed" (Lorin Stein). "Bolano makes you feel changed for having read him; he adjusts your angle of view on the world" (The London Guardian). "When I read Bolano I think: Everything is possible again" (Nicole Krauss). An absolute "must-have" title for Roberto Bolano collectors. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few copies of the First British Slipcased Hardcover Edition still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce copy thus. One of the greatest writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER ROBERTO BOLANO TITLES IN OUR CATALOG). ISBN 0330510541.

Editorial Anagrama, 2009. Colección: Compactos. Novela. La voz arrebatada de Auxilio Lacouture narra, e indaga, un crimen atroz y lejano. Auxilio, uruguaya de mediana edad, se oculta en los lavabos de mujeres durante la toma de la universidad por la policía, en México, en septiembre de 1968. Recluida allí por varios días, podrá avizorar los años ya vividos en México y los años por vivir. Rememora entonces a la poetisa Lilian Serpas, que hizo el amor con el Che, y a su infortunado hijo, a los poetas españoles León Felipe y Pedro Garfias a quienes Auxilio sirvió como doméstica voluntaria, y también aparece Arturo Belano, personaje central en Los detectives salvajes, de la que esta novela es una digresión fractal. Pero sobre todo se narra un viaje por un mundo, el Polo Norte de la memoria que se extiende por doquier. 154 pp. 21 x 13. Tapa blanda de editorial ilustrada. Sin subrayados. Buen estado de conservación. ISBN: 9788433973559
