$15.00A wild, funny, breathtaking novel about the ragtag members of an obscure literary movement and their varying escapades, starting in Mexico City circa 1975 and spreading around the world, to the end of the century. The late Bolano, a Chilean, was a master of the written word, and Natasha Wimmer (whose work is showcased in the book) is his best English translator. That he is no longer writing is to our detriment. A phenomenal read, HIGHLY recommended.

Daniel Bloom's life is spinning out of control. His marriage is falling apart, he is out of touch with his son, he is bordering a spiritual breakdown, and he feels the world is broken beyond repair. In order to escape, Daniel starts a new writing project, a fantasy where a nameless sniper assassinates corporate executives, sleazy lobbyists and politicians. Realizing his fantasy is too personal, Daniel must search for a salvation that leads to an unusual journey.
