Antwerp by Roberto Bolaño

Kyle’s last review of the year

really liked it
It’s hard to tell whether Antwerp’s disjointed nature is by design or because it is simply unfinished. Either way, it adds to the hallucinatory atmosphere Bolaño crafted here � it reads like a bomb was detonated in the middle of his narrative and we’re left to reassemble the scattered remains; or like trying to recall a dream that’s slipping out of your grasp. A slightly unpolished but nonetheless visionary debut.
