Antwerp

`A fascinating, even compulsory addition to the Bolano fan`s bookshelf …the sentences whizz over your head like bullets` Daily Telegraph Antwerp was Roberto Bolano`s first novel, though he chose not to publish it until 2002, more than twenty years after he`d written it. Set amidst the seedy hotels and deserted campsites on the Costa Brava, and filled with hapless girls, failed poets, and shifty policemen, Antwerp is a short and cinematic experimental crime novel spliced together with voices from a dream, from a nightmare, from passers-by, from an omniscient narrator, from `Roberto Bolano`. Intense and irrepressible, the novel is a personal declaration of the power of literature; reading it is to be present at the birth of Bolano`s enterprise in prose, to see the beginning, to witness the moment when his talent explodes. `It`s hard to think of a writer who has multiplied the possibilities more times than Roberto Bolano` Nicole Krauss, Guardian
