Publisher's Synopsis
The enormous posthumous success of novelist, poet and essayist Roberto Bola¨o is one of the most stunning triumphs in the history of Latin American literature. His masterpiece 2666 (Picador, 2009) has startled the literary world and seen him become one of the most successful talents to emerge from Latin America and be regarded as the most important Spanish-speaking writer to emerge since Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Shortly before his death, he was interviewed by Monica Maristain to discuss his work, life and passions in an expansive, brutally frank interview.
