Brief, brilliant novel tracking poet, air force pilot, and
serial killer Carlos Wieder through the crimes of the Pinochet years in
Concepción, Chile and “the shifting anthology of Chilean poetry”, to Barcelona
many years later. Written in clear, straightforward prose, at least in this
translation, the story unfolds in an almost off-handed narrative. Chilling,
sad, and filled with remorse. Felt I should read at least one of Bolaño’s novels.
Very good.
