Review:
"Throw your hats in the air....A supreme capstone to [Bolano's] own vaulting ambition....A landmark in what’s possible for the novel as a form in our increasingly, and terrifyingly, post-national world."
Jonathan Lethem, New York Times Book Review, 11/09/2008
Review:"Bolaño's urgency infuses literature with life's whole freight: the ache of a writing-workshop aspirant may embody sexual longing, or dreams of political freedom from oppression, even the utopian fantasy of the eradication of violence, while a master-novelist's doubts in his works' chances in the game of posterity can stand for all human remorse at the burdens of personal life, or at knowledge of the burdens of history."
Jonathan Lethem, New York Times, 11/12/2008
