Collected Poetry

Omtale

"An epic artistic journey . . . filled with sorrows and joys and discoveries." -Hector Tobar, Los Angeles TimesThough he reached international literary stardom for his novels, Roberto Bolano always considered himself, first and foremost, a poet. This volume unites more than three hundred poems, written from his youth to his final years, that probe the animating themes at the core of his oeuvre: literature, politics, exile, love, death. Audacious and sui generis, this collection reveals Bolano's full, extraordinary life in verse.
