Nazi Literature in the Americas by Roberto Bolaño (author), Chris Andrews (translator)
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 2.8mb
Overview: A playful and entirely original novel masquerading as a mini-encyclopedia of nonexistent Nazi literature in our hemisphere by Roberto Bolaño: “his generation’s premier Latin-American writer” (The New York Times).
A tour de force of black humor and imaginary erudition, Nazi Literature in the Americas presents itself as a biographical dictionary of writers who espoused extreme right-wing ideologies in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
Composed of short biographies about imaginary writers from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Cuba, Columbia, Peru, Uruguay, Venezuela, and the USA, Nazi Literature in the Americas includes descriptions of the writers’ works, cross references, a bibliography, and also an epilogue (“For Monsters”). All the writers are carefully and credibly situated in real literary worlds. There are fourteen thematic sections with titles such as “Forerunners and Figures of the Anti-Enlightenment,” “Magicians, Mercenaries and Miserable Individuals,” and “North American Poets.”
