The Return

Â A stunning collection of short stories - mostly dealing with the sex trade - by the late Chilean master and author of The Savage Detectives.

The Return contains thirteen unforgettable stories that seem to tell what Bolano called â€œthe secret story,â€ â€œthe one weâ€™ll never know.â€ Bent on returning to haunt you, Bolanoâ€™s tales might concern the unexpected fate of a beautiful ex-girlfriend, or soccer, witchcraft, or a dream of meeting the poet Enrique Lihn:they always surprise. Consider the title story: a young partygoer collapses in a Parisian disco and dies on the dance floor. Just as his soul is departing his body,it realizes strange happenings are afoot around his now dead body â€” and what follows next defies the imagination (except Bolanoâ€™s own).
