2666: A Novel Roberto Bolano
Publisher: Picador

This is as good a notion as any when thinking about Roberto Bolaño's monstrous novel 2666. Nowhere else is his writing more decadently sampled than with his major novels–”The Savage Detectives” and his magnum opus, “2666,” both translated from the original Spanish by Natasha Wimmer. Now that I have that distance, no tangible perspective has come other than this: nothing else I've read since has been 2666. No other book has done to me what 2666 did. Roberto Bolaño died shortly after presenting the first draft of 2666 to his publisher, Anagrama. Bolaño's final, posthumously published novel, 2666, is dominated by the void. 2666 by Roberto Bolano, translated from the Spanish by Natasha Wimmer. It was reported that he was not completely finished writing or editing the novel at the time of his death. What more is there to say about 2666? 2666, a novel by Chilean writer, Roberto Bolano, was published posthumously in 2004. In the second section of 2666, Bolano moves away from the “academic novel” of the critics (and reality as we know it) and delves into the polarities of the known and the unknown, truth vs. I'd say further, among many other attributes, that both novels offer nice examples of viable political fiction, contrary to certain claims. I'd say 2666 stands with the very short By Night in Chile as the best of these.
