Review

"A true masterpiece that will remain one of the key readings of contemporary literature."

In the end, Distant Star offers a composite picture of a nation turned upside down, allowing Bolano to ask what the function of art is in such context.Bolano's literature is about silences and absences, about reevaluating national memory. As today's Chile moves to distance itself from the atrocities of the military period, it is forced to confront the ghosts of its past. In Bolano's able hands, those treacherous ghosts have universal value. "

From the Publisher

One of the key novels by the outstandingly talented Chilean author of By Night in Chile, who died tragically young earlier this year.
