Distant Star PDF
By:Roberto Bolaño,Chris Andrews
Published on 2004-12-17 by New Directions Publishing
A chilling novel about the nightmare of a corrupt and brutal dictatorship. The star of Roberto Bolano's hair-raising novel Distant Star is Alberto Ruiz-Tagle, an air force pilot who exploits the 1973 coup to launch his own version of the New Chilean Poetry, a multimedia enterprise involving sky-writing, poetry, torture, and photo exhibitions. For our unnamed narrator, who first encounters this |star| in a college poetry workshop, Ruiz-Tagle becomes the silent hand behind every evil act in the darkness of Pinochet's regime. The narrator, unable to stop himself, tries to track Ruiz-Tagle down, and sees signs of his activity over and over again. A corrosive, mocking humor sparkles within Bolano's darkest visions of Chile under Pinochet. In Bolano's world there's a big graveyard and there's a big graveyard laugh. (He once described his novel By Night in Chile as |a tale of terror, a situation comedy, and a combination pastoral-gothic novel.|) Many Chilean authors have written about the |bloody events of the early Pinochet years, the abductions and murders,| Richard Eder commented in the The New York Times: |None has done it in so dark and glittering a fashion as Roberto Bolano.|
