By Night in Chile, Roberto Bolaño’s first novel to be published in English, launched him as a literary legend and international sensation.

A hypnotic deathbed confession revolving around Opus Dei, poetry, and Pinochet, By Night in Chile pours out the self-justifying dark memories of the Jesuit priest Father Urrutia. As through a crack in the wall, Urrutia’s nightlong rant provides a terrifying, clandestine view of those strange Chilean bedfellows: Church and State.
