This is one of those great "big idea" books.



The funny thing is that I read it in 2005 in one night passing through Flagstaff on a film tour. I think I read it so fast that I would benefit from reading it again.

Pretty amazing book. Bolaño is a first-rate novelist. I almost feel like "The Savage Detectives" was better though.
