Father Sebastian Urrutia Lacroix is dying.A priest, a member of Opus Dei, a literary critic and a poet, in his feverish delirium the crucial events of his past swell around him.From glimpses of the great poet Pablo Neruda, the German writer Ernst Junger and his one-time student, General Pinochet, to nightmarish flashes of falcons and falconers, the Chilean landscape and faces of those now dead, reality and imagination crowd and clamber in pursuit of the ‘wizened youth’ who still haunts Father Lacroix all these years later.TRANSLATED BY CHRIS ANDREWS‘The wit, the horror, the ambition, the strangeness; Roberto Bolaño’s work is a sprawling labyrinth of surprise, bold invention, and images that will live with you forever’ Chris Power‘Few are the writers who have mastered the alchemy of turning the trivial into the sublime, the everyday into adventure. Bolaño is among the best at this diabolical skill’ Georgi Gospodinov, author of Time Shelter

Touto knihou, jež vyšla roku 1996, na sebe dnes slavný Roberto Bolaño poprvé upoutal pozornost. Formálně je to slovník spisovatelů, ale žádná slavná jména skutečných latinskoamerických autorů, kteří si tak či onak zadali s fašistickou ideologií, tam nenajdeme. Není to ani sbírka esejů, ale ani román či povídky, nýbrž zvláštní hybridní žánr: soubor typicky bolaňovských, záměrně znejistělých vyprávění, kde banální a všední historky nabývají děsivých a groteskních rozměrů. Bolano tu má blízko k Borgesovi, jenž také věrohodně vyprávěl o ne-existujících spisovatelích, textech a historických osobnostech a s radostí ze hry vymýšlel příručky typu Fantastické zoologie. Bolaño si navíc hraje se jmény, která se někdy dají v textu dešifrovat, sarkasticky se šklebí a popichuje,ale hlavně propadá - a s ním i čtenáři - kouzlu slova a chrlí fascinující litanie a obrazy.

‘This is where the story should end, but life is not as kind as literature...’A journey to Acapulco gradually becomes a descent into the underworld. An elderly South American writer instructs a protégé in the subterfuges of entering work for provincial literary prizes. A litany unfolds, offering sixty-nine reasons why not to dance with Pablo Neruda.‘The melancholy folklore of exile,’ as Roberto Bolaño once put it, pervades the fourteen haunting stories of Last Evenings on Earth. Set in the Chilean exile diaspora of Latin America and Europe, and peopled by Bolano's beloved ‘failed generation,’ this collection was the first to introduce the English-speaking world to Bolaño’s immeasurable gifts as a short-story writer.

Paris, 1938. The Peruvian poet Cesar Vallejo lies in hospital, hiccupping himself to death.When the doctors struggle to offer a diagnosis, his wife calls on an acquaintance of her friend Madame Reynaud, the mesmerist and reclusive bachelor Pierre Pain. Pain, in love and eager to impress, agrees to help. But on a night that ''smells of something strange'', things soon go awry...A wonderfully oneiric novella that blends the finest of Edgar Allan Poe with Jorge Luis Borges and Bolano''s truly astonishing alchemical gifts, Monsieur Pain is a gripping noir conspiracy as rich as it is strange.TRANSLATED BY CHRIS ANDREWS‘A surrealist nightmare, with overtones of Edgar Allan Poe and Raymond Chandler’ The TimesThis marvellous little yarn is dark, mysterious and rich in surprises... If you have yet to enter the daringly kaleidoscopic labyrinth that is Roberto Bolano''s imagination, this is a lively place to begin what will be quite an experience’ Irish Times

WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY CHRIS POWER‘A master of the short form’ IndependentWide-ranging, suggestive, and ever-daring, Roberto Bolaño's short stories map out the dark terrain that he would go on to explore in his novellas and epic novels. From melancholic portraits of exile and its folklore to a rogue’s gallery of desperate characters futilely attempting to unearth the animating secrets of the world, each of Bolaño’s short fictions adds yet another door, a window, a secret passage onto the sinister, eerie universe that Bolaño brought to life across his body of work. Bringing together Last Evenings on Earth, The Return and The Insufferable Gaucho, as well as Bolaño’s posthumously published stories, this new book marks the first time these fictions have been collected in one edition, allowing for a major reappraisal of the vital place that the short story commands for Bolaño’s literary legacy. ‘Bolaño was a flat-out genius, one of the greatest writers of our time’ Paul Auster‘Bolaño was a game changer: his field was politics, poetry and melancholia . . . and his writing was always unparalleled’ Mariana Enríquez

Chilan Roberto Bolañ (1953-2003), básník a prozaik, je v současnosti zřejmě nejvýraznější postavou latinskoamerické literatury. V této knize vypráví příběh dvou "divokých detektivů", básníků-desperátů Artura Belana a Odyssea Limy a jejich přátel, umělců a stoupenců "žaludečního realismu neboli žaludného či záludného realismu, někdy též bludrealismu", kteří se vydávají po stopách tajemné básnířky Cesáreji Tinajerové. Hledání - iniciační cesta, bildungsroman, citová výchova - trvá dvacet let, od roku 1976 do roku 1996, a prostřednictvím množství postav se rozvětvuje do změti podivných, někdy neukončených příběhů, tvořících "totální" román, kde se dá najít úplně všechno: lásky, smrti a vraždy, blázince a univerzity, zmizení a objevování, literatura i život. Dějištěm je Mexiko (kde Bolaño vyrůstal), Nikaragua, USA, Francie, Španělsko, Rakousko, Izrael, Afrika.

Auxilio Lacouture is trapped.For twelve days she hides alone in a lavatory on the fourth floor of her university. Staring at the floor, she begins a heartfelt and feverish tale: she is the Mother of Mexican poetry.A highly charged first-person semi-hallucinatory novella, Amulet is a potent stream of consciousness through which the poets of Mexico rage and swirl. Filled with wild, dark literary prophecies, heroic poets, mad poets, artists ‘choked by the brilliance of youth’, Auxilio’s passionate narration – both heartbreaking and lyrical – is suffused with the essence of Roberto Bolaño’s art.TRANSLATED BY CHRIS ANDREWS''Encapsulates the violence and tragedy of recent Latin American history'' The Times‘Roberto Bolaño redefined the form of the novel in his masterpiece 2666; with the hallucinatory narrative of Amulet, he reimagines what literature can become’ New Statesman

Mass-murdering authors. Writers at the head of a football-hooligan ring.

Román Amulet navazuje na Divoké detektivy, podobně jako Vzdálená hvězda navazovala na Nacistickou literaturu v Americe. Vypravěčkou je Auxilio Lacouture, uruguayská básnířka a "matka všech mexických básníků", která se v září roku 1968 při policejním zásahu na mexické univerzitě schovala na záchodě, kde přečkala několik dnů. Čas strávený na záchodě filozofické fakulty se stane tunelem času, který ji přenáší do minulých let v Mexiku i do těch, která má ještě před sebou. Ve strhujícím toku vyprávění, které sám Bolaño přirovnává k partituře pro jediný nástroj, kdežto Divocí detektivové a 2666 jsou skladba pro orchestr, se objevují slavní skuteční i smyšlení básníci, malíři a další umělci včetně Artura Belana, a vypráví se také o cestování, o severním pólu a zapomenutých vraždách. Amulet je Bolañvým šestým románem, vydaným poprvé roku 1999 v nakladatelství Anagrama.

But, twenty years later, they are still on the run. The Savage Detectives is their remarkable journey through our darkening universe. Told, shared and mythologised by a generation of lovers, rebels and readers, their testimonies are woven together into one of the most dazzling Latin American novels of all time.TRANSLATED BY NATASHA WIMMER‘Roberto Bolaño was a game changer: his field was politics, poetry and melancholia.

In ‘Cowboy Graves,’ Arturo Belano – Bolaño''s alter ego – returns to Chile after the coup to fight with his comrades for socialism. ‘French Comedy of Horrors’ finds a seventeen-year-old recruited into a secret society of artists in the sewers of Paris.

How Chile became home to the world’s most radical free-market experiment—and what its downfall suggests about the fate of neoliberalism around the globeIn The Chile Project, Sebastian Edwards tells the remarkable story of how the neoliberal economic model—installed in Chile during the Pinochet dictatorship and deepened during three decades of left-of-center governments—came to an end in 2021, when Gabriel Boric, a young former student activist, was elected president, vowing that “If Chile was the cradle of neoliberalism, it will also be its grave.” More than a story about one Latin American country, The Chile Project is a behind-the-scenes history of the spread and consequences of the free-market thinking that dominated economic policymaking around the world in the second half of the twentieth century—but is now on the retreat. In 1955, the U.S. State Department launched the “Chile Project” to train Chilean economists at the University of Chicago, home of the libertarian Milton Friedman. After General Augusto Pinochet overthrew socialist president Salvador Allende in 1973, Chile’s “Chicago Boys” implemented the purest neoliberal model in the world for the next seventeen years, undertaking a sweeping package of privatization and deregulation, creating a modern capitalist economy, and sparking talk of a “Chilean miracle.” ...

Selected by Louise Glück as Winner of the 2023 Changes Book Prize, Laura Newbern’s second collection is a work of burning, restrained urgency that looks at loss, isolation, the passage of time—and what endures despite. Written in a town that was once home to the world’s largest asylum, these poems are studies in the dual nature of that idea: asylum, always both a protection and an exile. The “country” of these poems is not, or not only, the idyllic backdrop of a pastoral scene; it is also, more ominously, the kind of country defined by a flag, dark borderland, and violent history. In other words: place of separation. Writing about the works of Bellini, Newbern shifts focus away from the paintings’ subjects and into the scenery where landscape is what constitutes the irreducible distance of the subjects from every other thing. “The Madonna of the Meadow cannot also be the Madonna not of the Meadow,” Glück writes in her foreword. “No one thing can be everything.” A Night in the Country is haunted by figures of loneliness who attend to their isolation with a spirit of religiosity, for them a necessary art.

Bad Blood meets Burn Book in this expose about tech icon Bob Lee - and what his life and 2023 murder tell us about San Francisco in the Internet Age. For fans of Going Infinite and Super Pumped: Sex and drugs, parties and violence, genius coders and VC tycoons - welcome to the rip-roaring world of the American tech industry. The full story of an industry, a city, and two men - one who got everything he ever wanted, one who never got what he thought he deserved - and what happened the night it all came apart. Like his many peers in the tech industry who had poured into San Francisco over the last two decades, Bob Lee was remaking the world, building the most familiar parts of our digital lives, a lead innovator at one start-up after another, such as Google, Android, Square, and CashApp. When Lee was found stabbed to death one night on the streets of San Francisco, the city''s many critics knew exactly what it meant. Just like they had been saying, the city was violent, dangerous, and out-of-control. San Francisco was so bent on creating a liberal utopia that it was failing at its ...

Roberto Calasso is one of the most original and acclaimed of writers on literature, art, culture and mythology. In Baudelaire''s Folly, Calasso turns his attention to the poets and writers of Paris in the nineteenth century who created what was later called ''the Modern.'' His protagonist is Charles Baudelaire: poet of nerves, art lover, pioneering critic, man about Paris, whose groundbreaking works on modern culture described the ephemeral, fleeting nature of life in the metropolis - and the artist''s role in capturing this - as no other writer had done. With Baudelaire''s critical intelligence as his inspiration, Calasso ranges through his life and work, focusing on two painters - Ingres and Delacroix - about whom Baudelaire wrote acutely, and then turns to Degas and Manet, who followed in the tracks Baudelaire laid down in his great essay The Painter of Modern Life. In a mosaic of stories, insights, dreams, close readings of poems and commentaries on paintings, Paris in Baudelaire''s years comes to life. In the eighteenth century, a ''folie'' was a garden pavilion set aside for people of leisure, a place of delight and fantasy. Here Calasso has created a brilliant and dramatic ''Folie Baudelaire'': a place where the ... Unknown localization key: "more"

More of a story than a collection of poetry, Love by Night will whisk you away from your world and into the dreamy romantic night.Love by Night begins with anxious hesitation and nervous attraction, grows into tender affection, blossoms into passionate love, delves deep into whimsical dreams, and finally builds an image of an idyllic future together, as the reader develops along with the two characters of this poetic story.Written as a conversation between two points of view in constant change and flux with each other, this book invites the reader into the conversation about the love that connects one person to another, but also all of us to each other.Through this written testament to the emotional journeys books can take us on, S. K. Williams breaks down stereotypes, sexism, relationship roles, and brings awareness to mental health, grief, anxiety, depression, how to move forward, how to love in a healthy way, and, most of all, how to love yourself when it feels impossible.
