Distant Star

by Roberto Bolaño

"Relato que se desarrolla a partir del catálogo de autores nazis imaginado por el autor en su libro anterior La literatura nazi en América. La atención se concentra aquí sobre uno de ellos, Carlos Ramírez Hoffman, para denunciar la impunidad del horror y el sentido tragicómico de los destinos humanos"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
