Roberto Bolaño died shortly after presenting the first draft of 2666 to his publisher, Anagrama. 2666 is a monstrous novel, in every conceivable way. Certainly, it bears many attributes of a work of long fiction – memorable characters, richly evoked locations, abundant action, recurrent themes. 2666.jpg Roberto Bolano's novel 2666 is a turbulent structure. It was reported that he was not completely finished writing or editing the novel at the time of his death. Roberto Bolaño's final novel 2666, released posthumously, is a sprawling literary tome. Calling Roberto Bolano's 2666 a novel is somewhat misleading. 2666 by Roberto Bolaño For an 800-page, translated novel in five sections, 2666 is an unbelievable pleasure to read.
