New York: Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2011. 1st ed. Hardcover. New. 8vo, bds, dj, 277 p. On vacation with his girlfriend, Ingeborg, the German war games champion Udo Berger returns to a small town on the Costa Brava where he spent the summers of his childhood. Soon they meet another vacationing German couple, Charly and Hanna, who introduce them to a band of localsââ¬âthe Wolf, the Lamb, and El Quemadoââ¬âand to the darker side of life in a resort town. Late one night, Charly disappears without a trace, and Udoââ¬â¢s well-ordered life is thrown into upheaval; while Ingeborg and Hanna return to their lives in Germany, he refuses to leave the hotel. Soon he and El Quemado are enmeshed in a round of Third Reich, Udoââ¬â¢s favorite World War II strategy game, and Udo discovers that the gameââ¬â¢s consequences may be all too real. Written in 1989 and found among Roberto Bolañoââ¬â¢s papers after his death, The Third Reich is a stunning exploration of memory and violence. Reading this quick, visceral novel, we see a world-class writer coming into his ownââ¬âand exploring for the first time the themes that would define his masterpieces The Savage Detectives and 2666.
