so, thanks for bringing up this book cuz i've been meaning to read it for the last couple of years. i'd rep you if i could even if rep is meaningless-- so thanks.

"gringospeak" haha
Nazi Literature in the Americas...?! And you haven't found it
untranslated, yet?
hot damn.
that sounds like a book worth reading.
what appealed you to bolano?? for me it was his poetry; he's a great poet.
