The Return

The Return

Â A stunning collection of short stories - mostly dealing with the sex trade - by the late Chilean master and author of The Savage Detectives.
The Return contains thirteen unforgettable stories that seem to tell what Bolano called â‚¬Å“the secret story,â‚¬Â â‚¬Å“the one weâ‚¬ll never know.â‚¬Â Bent on returning to haunt you, Bolanoâ‚¬s tales might concern the unexpected fate of a beautiful ex-girlfriend, or soccer, witchcraft, or a dream of meeting the poet Enrique Lihn:they always surprise. Consider the title story: a young partygoer collapses in a Parisian disco and dies on the dance floor. Just as his soul is departing his body,it realizes strange happenings are afoot around his now dead body â‚¬â€¢ and what follows next defies the imagination (except Bolanoâ‚¬s own).
