When Roberto Bolaño won the 2008 National Book Critics Circle Award for his epic 2666, he had already been dead for five years. Since then, an intriguing series of unpublished works have come to light, including these three novellas. In Cowboy Graves, Arturo Belano—Bolaño's alter ego—returns to Chile to fight for socialism, while in French Comedy of Horrors a South American teen joins a secret society of artists based in the Parisian sewers. After the fascist overthrow of his country, the young poet in Fatherland is adrift when his girfriend disappears.
