Forlagsbeskrivelse af 2666 af Roberto Bolano
Santa Teresa, on the Mexico-US border: an urban sprawl that draws lost souls to it like a vortex. Convicts and academics find themselves here, as does an American sportswriter, a teenage student with her widowed father, and a reclusive, 'missing' author. But, there is a darker side to the town. Girls and women are disappearing at an alarming rate. As a sense of conspiracy grows and an apocalyptic shadow draws closer, the corruption, violence and decadence of twentieth-century history reveals itself in a novel of an astonishing scale and burning intensity.

Unforgettable. . will resonate for years to come’ Daily Telegraph‘As riveting as any top-notch thriller. . 2666 achieves something extremely rare in fiction: it provides an all-encompassing view of our world’ Sunday Times
