Novel
Когда их родители умирают, Бьянка начинает курить, а Томас все еще девственник. Сироты исследуют «опасные улицы взрослой жизни», пока Бьянка не находит Масисте, бывшего мистера Вселенная, и входит в его темный особняк…
Bolaño, Up Close and Personal
Generously included as a bonus DVD alongside the 502-page Bolaño salvaje, a book of essays about and reminiscences on the Chilean novelist/poet published by the Barcelona-based Editorial Candy. Bolaño cercano [a difficult to translate title approximating something like Bolaño, Up Close and Personal], which offers up a sympathetic portrait of Bolaño as a loving family man and tireless reader and writer and teases with ever so brief glimpses of his personal library and countless spiral notebooks filled with rough drafts of his novels and poetry and even comic book-like drawings and illustrations.
