Their quest- to track down the vanished poet Cesarea Tinajero. But, twenty years later, they are still on the run. The Savage Detectives is their remarkable journey through our darkening universe. Told, shared and mythologised by a generation of lovers, rebels and readers, their testimonies are woven together into one of the most dazzling Latin American novels of all time.

'Roberto Bolano was a game changer- his field was politics, poetry and melancholia. He could be funny, he could be literate, he could be devastating. And his writing was always unparalleled' Mariana Enriquez, author of Our Share of Night
'Bolano makes you feel changed for having read him; he adjusts your angle of view on the world' Guardian
