New Year’s Eve, 1975. Two hunted men leave Mexico City in a borrowed white Impala.

Their quest: to track down the mythical, vanished poet Cesárea Tinajero. But, twenty years later, they are still on the run. The Savage Detectives is their remarkable journey through our darkening universe. Told, shared and mythologised by a generation of lovers, rebels and readers, their testimonies are woven together into one of the most dazzling Latin American novels of all time.

TRANSLATED BY NATASHA WIMMER

‘Roberto Bolaño was a game changer: his field was politics, poetry and melancholia. He could be funny, he could be literate, he could be devastating. And his writing was always unparalleled’ Mariana Enríquez

‘Bolaño makes you feel changed for having read him; he adjusts your angle of view on the world’ Guardian

Commentaires

This novel is an elegy for a generation.
The comic frenzy, the inventiveness of character and situation, and the mood-soaked depiction of 1970s Mexico is delightful.
It’s no exaggeration to call Bolaño a genius. The Savage Detectives alone should grant him immortality.
My favorite writer . . . The Savage Detectives is an ark bearing all the strange salvage of poetry and youth from catastrophes past and those yet to come. (Nicole Krauss, author of The History of Love)
An exuberantly sprawling, politically charged picaresque novel.
Roberto Bolaño's masterwork
The most influential and admired novelist of his generation in the Spanish-speaking world.
For stunning wit, brutal honesty, loving humanity and a heart that bleeds into the simplest of words, no other writer ever came close.
An exemplary literary rebel
