When #occupygaddis was proposed on Twitter, I posted it to Facebook, where Pat suggested that J.R. 2666 is the literary testament of the Latin-American writer--as he called himself--Roberto Bolaño. It was reported that he was not completely finished writing or editing the novel at the time of his death. I'd say further, among many other attributes, that both novels offer nice examples of viable political fiction, contrary to certain claims. 2666.jpg Roberto Bolano's novel 2666 is a turbulent structure. Calling Roberto Bolano's 2666 a novel is somewhat misleading. I'd say 2666 stands with the very short By Night in Chile as the best of these. Was all right and all, but if I wanted a real book, see, maybe I'd like to check out this Bolaño fellow with him. And this is probably why, out of all the 'books' in 2666, I liked Book II best. Certainly, it bears many attributes of a work of long fiction – memorable characters, richly evoked locations, abundant action, recurrent themes. 2666 is one of those novels which push the limits of the novel past its conventional size and scope, and its 893 pages of text definitely is one literary mammoth. Perhaps the only writer of international inter. Roberto Bolaño died shortly after presenting the first draft of 2666 to his publisher, Anagrama.
