A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice On vacation with his girlfriend, Ingeborg, the German war-game champion Udo Berger returns to a small town on the Costa Brava where he spent his summers as a child. There, they meet another vacationing German couple, who introduce them to the darker side of the resort town's life. Soon Udo is enmeshed in a round of the Third Reich, his favorite World War II strategy game, with a shadowy local called El Quemado. As the game draws to its conclusion, Udo discovers that the outcome may be all too real. Written in 1989, The Third Reich is Roberto Bola o's stunning exploration of memory and violence---and a rare glimpse at a world-class writer coming into his own.

Piranhas: The Boy Bosses of Naples: A Novel

Piranhas: The Boy Bosses of Naples: A Novel

Roberto Saviano

nidottu
In Gomorrah, a New York Times Book Review Notable Book of the Year, Roberto Saviano revealed a true, devastating portrait of Naples, Italy under the rule of the Camorra, a crime organization more powerful and violent than the Mafia. Now a major motion picture, in Piranhas (previously published as The Piranhas), the international bestselling author returns to his home city with a novel of gang warfare and a young man's dark desire to rise to the top of Naples's underworld. Nicolas Fiorillo is a brilliant and ambitious fifteen-year-old from the slums of Naples, eager to make his mark and to acquire power and the money that comes with it. With nine friends, he sets out to create a new paranza, or gang. Together they roam the streets on their motorscooters, learning how to break into the network of small-time hoodlums that controls drug-dealing and petty crime in the city. They learn to cheat and to steal, to shoot semiautomatic pistols and AK-47s. Slowly they begin to wrest control of the neighborhoods from enemy gangs while making alliances with failing old bosses. Nicolas's strategic brilliance is prodigious, and his cohorts' rapid rise and envelopment in the ensuing maelstrom of violence and death is riveting and impossible to turn away from. In The Piranhas, Roberto Saviano imagines the lurid glamour of Nicolas's story with all the vividness and insight that made Gomorrah a worldwide sensation. "With the openhearted rashness that belongs to every true writer, Saviano returns to tell the story of the fierce and grieving heart of Naples." --Elena Ferrante

"Extraordinary . . . Bola o's] greatest work." --James Wood, The New York Times The book that catapulted Roberto Bola o into international literary stardom, By Night in Chile is the final testimony of Sebasti n Urrutia Lacroix--Chilean priest and member of Opus Dei, eminent literary critic and failed poet--as he is haunted by a shadowy figure from his past. In Urrutia's feverish last hours, a deluge of memories pours from him: of hobnobbing with Santiago's most unctuous literati; of undertaking a mission to save Europe's decaying cathedrals from existential threat by pigeon excrement; of retreating into Greco-Roman poetry during the darkest chapter of modern Chilean history; of tutoring Augusto Pinochet in Marxist theory, so that the General may better understand his enemies. Throughout he insists, with fracturing conviction, that he was always on the right side of history. A novel about high art and fascism, silence and complicity, and, ultimately, the weight of damnation, Roberto Bola o's By Night in Chile is a deep-cutting satire and a work of devastating moral insight.

" One of] his masterpieces." --Jonathan Lethem, The New York Times Book ReviewAlberto Ruiz-Tagle was once a quiet, unknowable, unpromising member of Chile's young poetry scene. But the military coup of 1973 sees Alberto reborn as the new regime's leading poet, Carlos Wieder. Known for his daring sky poems, penned in smoke high above the cities, Weider's dazzling trajectory is a cause for astonishment and speculation among his old poetry friends. Where did this monstrous talent suddenly spring from? And how is it connected to the disappearance of the beautiful Garmendia twins? Told from across the years in exile in Europe, the narrator's attempts to trace the fate of his old circle will lead him to one last confrontation with the brutality of their generation.

"Imaginative, full of a love for literature, and . . . exceptionally entertaining." --The Washington Post Mass-murdering authors. Writers at the head of a football-hooligan ring. A pilot who crafts his poetry in the sky. A tour de force of black humor and imaginary erudition, Nazi Literature in the Americas presents itself as a biographical dictionary of pan-American writers who espoused extreme right-wing ideologies in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Terrifyingly witty and remarkably inventive, Nazi Literature in the Americas is the virtuosic, one-of-a-kind masterpiece that brought Bola o fame throughout the Spanish-speaking world.

Roberto Saviano returns to the streets of Naples and the boy bosses who run them in Savage Kiss, the hotly anticipated follow-up to The Piranhas, the bestselling novel and major motion picture Nicolas Fiorillo and his gang of children--his paranza--control the squares of Forcella after their rapid rise to power. But it's not easy being at the top. Now that the Piranhas have power in the city, Nicolas must undermine the old families of the Camorra and keep the Piranhas united. Every paranzino has his own vendettas and dreams to pursue--dreams that might go beyond the laws of the gang. A new war may be about to break out in this city of cutthroat bargaining, ruthless betrayal, and brutal revenge. Saviano continues the story of the disillusioned boys of Forcella, the paranzini ready to give and receive kisses that leave a taste of blood. Saviano's Gomorrah was a worldwide sensation, and The Piranhas, called "raw and shocking" by The New York Times Book Review, captivated readers with its tale of raw criminal ambition, told with "openhearted rashness" (Elena Ferrante). Savage Kiss, which again draws on the skills of translator Antony Shugaar, is the latest thrilling installment from the brilliant Italian novelist.

"An enthralling and haunting ode to youth, life on the margins, poetry and poets, and Mexico City." --Francisco GoldmanAuxilio Lacouture is the mother of Mexican poetry. Uruguayan by birth, Mexican by destiny, the vagrant poetess serves as guardian, confidant, literary mentor, and occasional lover to a generation of Mexico City's mad young poets, a fixture in their heady bohemian swirl. On the infamous day in 1968 when the military invades the campus of the city's main university, Auxilio is in the women's bathroom of the department of literature and philosophy, reading the poetry of Pedro Garfias on the toilet. Trapped and alone, she hides there for twelve days, her life's story, past and future, pouring from her in a great deluge. Hallucinatory and prophetic, Roberto Bola o's Amulet is a haunting, spellbinding meditation on violence and exile, on memory and history--a requiem for a lost generation.

"Full of moral and political urgency . . . Excellent." --Ursula K. Le Guin, The Guardian In 1938 Paris, Pierre Pain, a lonely bachelor and a beleaguered mesmerist, receives a telegram from his friend Madame Reynaud. An acquaintance of hers lies in a hospital bed beset with a mysterious--and apparently terminal--case of the hiccups, and she entreats Pain to cure him. Quietly in love with Reynaud, and buoyed by her faith in him, he agrees to see the patient, the exiled Peruvian poet C sar Vallejo. So sets off a nightmarish and labyrinthine chain of events that sees Pain racing, breathless, through the umbrous streets of Paris: He finds himself barred from approaching Vallejo's bedside. He is trailed by a ghostly pair of Spaniards who emerge from the shadows only to bribe him not to treat the poet. He encounters a former peer, now working across the Spanish border, whose career has taken a shockingly sinister turn. A hypnotic and surreal noir, Roberto Bola o's Monsieur Pain takes us on a vertiginous journey through conspiracy, occultism, and the unspeakable evil looming in our midst.

"It's hard to think of a writer who has multiplied the possibilities more times than Roberto Bola o . . . Antwerp is] exceptional and moving." --Nicole Krauss, The Guardian Oft called the "big bang" of Roberto Bola o's universe, Antwerp is his first novel--or the shattered remnants of one. Written when he was just twenty-seven years of age, it was so intensely strange and solitary that he tucked it away for more than twenty years, certain that any publisher would slam the door in his face. It proceeds in hallucinatory sketches: a lonely highway, a desolate campground, a freshly abandoned hotel room; a tryst, an interrogation, a murder; and somewhere just out of reach, a young, feverish writer named Roberto Bola o drifting in and out of view. A radical, sui generis effort by a burgeoning genius, Antwerp is an essential part of Bola o's oeuvre.

"Excellent . . . 'The Insufferable Gaucho' is one of Bola o's most powerful fictions." --The New York Times Book Review An aging Buenos Aires judge retires to the family ranch in the Pampas to battle feral rabbits and reclaim the dignity of the gaucho life. A detective investigates a series of grisly murders--among his fellow sewer rats. An obscure Argentinian novelist journeys to Paris to face down the filmmaker who has been plagiarizing his work for years. Riffing on Borges and Kafka yet utterly and inimitably Bola o, the stories of The Insufferable Gaucho are a testament to his mastery of the short form. Plus: two of his most provocative and piercing essays, crackling with his signature black humor and incomparable powers of perception and critique.
