Nazi Literature In The America

A major, retrospective launch of Roberto Bolano's work - now published as a Vintage Classics author for the first time.

Mass-murdering authors. Writers at the head of a football-hooligan ring. A pilot who crafts his poetry in the sky.

A tour de force of black humour and imaginary erudition, Nazi Literature in the Americas presents itself as a biographical dictionary of pan-American writers who espoused extreme right-wing ideologies in the 20th and 21st centuries.

Terrifyingly witty and remarkably inventive, this is the virtuosic, one-of-a-kind masterpiece which brought Bolano fame throughout the Spanish-speaking world.
