Thanks Moshe...very interesting post..
...by the way,I heard very great reviews of Bolaño's "Savage Detectives"...some of that reviews tell that book is the best hispanic novel since Julio Cortazar's "Rayuela"...from 1963 !!! (I think that is very exagerate)...

I never heard before about Metalux and MV Carbon...I'm playing "Waiting For Armadillo"...and sounds funny...

Let the Right One In is an insanely good film.

It should be raking in the bucks instead of that Twilight bull.

I read it this spring. Parts of it are really amazing, but as a whole, I can't say that I thought it was worth my time. (Part of the issue is that Bolano died before he really, truly finished it.) That said, the Part About the Critics definitely picks up about halfway through. And Parts 3 and 4 are simply phenomenal; The Part About the Crimes is one of the most terrifying -- and terrifyingly good -- things I've ever read.
