Hardcover. Condition: Fine. First Edition. First USA Edition/First Printing. Hardcover. Fine in a Fine Dust Jacket. Translated from the Spanish by Natasha Wimmer.

First edition of this modern classic, which was named one of the New York Timesâ 100 Best Books of the 21st Century. Octavo, original half cloth. Boldly signed by the translator Natasha Wimmer on the title page. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Rodrigo Corral. Jacket lettering by Jennifer van Dalsen. Translated from Spanish by Natasha Wimmer. James Wood wrote in The New York Times, "A novel all about poetry and poets, one of whose heroes is a lightly disguised version of the author himself: how easily this could be nothing more than a precious lattice of ludic narcissism and unbearably "literary" adventures. The novel is wildly enjoyable (as well as, finally, full of lament), in part because Bolaño, despite all the game-playing, has a worldly, literal sensibility.".

First edition in English, signed by the translator on the title page. First published in Spanish in 1998, Los detectives salvajes received the Rómulo Gallegos Prize the following year. Bolaño was "the most significant Latin American literary voice of his generation" (The New York Times). "Bolaño's genius is not just the extraordinary quality of his writing, but also that he does not conform to the paradigm of the Latin American writer. His writing is neither magical realism, nor baroque nor localist, but an imaginary, extraterritorial mirror of Latin America, more as a kind of state of mind than a specific place" (Echeverría, El País). Larry Rohter, "Harvesting Fragments from a Chilean Master", The New York Times, 19 Dec. 2012; Ignacio Echeverría, quoted in Larry Rohter, "A Nonconformist Vision of Latin America", The New York Times, 11 Aug. 2005. Octavo. Original cream boards, spine lettered in black. With dust jacket. Tail of spine lightly bumped; jacket unclipped: a fine copy in like jacket.
