My gratitude for the deep dive into Bolaño's best character. Many shrewd observations are put forth, too many to comment upon here. I think in these discussions of the negative imaginative we should remember Bolaño's comment that the opposite of a concentration camp is a library, that Literature is first and foremost the anti-Auschwitz, despite whatever barbarism it chronicles.
an amazing and insightful analysis!
