I'd say 2666 stands with the very short By Night in Chile as the best of these. 2666.jpg Roberto Bolano's novel 2666 is a turbulent structure. I'd say further, among many other attributes, that both novels offer nice examples of viable political fiction, contrary to certain claims. While a rose by any other name may well smell as sweet, the title of a book is most frequently inextricably linked to the nature and quality of the story contained within. I have very little patience for books I'm not enjoying and I have no reluctance to put a book down forever if I'm not getting "pleasure"* from it. Part of my four-day holiday weekend has been spent thinking about Roberto Bolaño's 2666. 2666 opens with a novel about four European literary critics, academics, who specialize in the work of a fictional German novelist, Benno von Archimboldi. It wasn't as if I had been dying to read it. As I was reading the passage in Bolaño's novel 2666 on page 40 through 41 I was reminded of the article from the New York Times we read last week entitled, “Analyzing Literature and Words by Numbers”. Kevin Nguyen interviews Charlotte Strick, the designer of 2666's U.S. You can't talk about 2666 without mentioning the book design. A few weeks ago I said that I was considering doing the group read of Robert Bolano's novel 2666. 2666 by Roberto Bolaño For an 800-page, translated novel in five sections, 2666 is an unbelievable pleasure to read. Nowhere else is his writing more decadently sampled than with his major novels–”The Savage Detectives” and his magnum opus, “2666,” both translated from the original Spanish by Natasha Wimmer. He was still working on it when he died in 2003. Bolaño's final novel, 2666, represents a sort of apotheosis of that dread. By Roberto Bolaño (Farrar, Straus and Giroux) $30. The book is huge, almost 1,000 pages.
