| Summary: | From his first fifteen years in Chile, to his nine years in Mexico City from 1968 to 1977, to the quarter of a century he lived and worked in the Blanes-Barcelona area on the Costa Brava in Spain through his death in 2003, Roberto Bolaño developed into an astonishingly diverse, prolific writer, one of the most consequential and widely read of his generation in any language. Increasingly recognized not only in Latin America, but as a major figure in world literature, he has come to play an integral role in the development of our contemporary imaginary on a global, planetary scale. As the wide-ranging contextual investigations of this volume's twenty-eight distinguished scholars attest, Bolaño's indelible influence and impact will shape literary cultures worldwide for years to come. |
