Books of The Times - A Trip Through a Literary Labyrinth in Roberto Bolaño’s New Novel, ‘2666’ - Review - NYTimes.com
Highway 61 Revisited, huh? Okay, I will buy that as an analogy, Janet.
But this?
“2666” earns its place in posterity by burying a hint at the book’s overall secret, to the extent that it has one, in the midst of one critic’s story.
You must be talking about Morini, Janet. And it is because I do not understand Morini that I do not understand the “overall secret?” But this presupposes that you understand the “overall secret,” Janet, and I am not going to accept that on faith.
Yes, “the Fate section is more entertaining than plausible,” but we were due for some entertainment at that point, Janet.
Dammit, Janet, I love you.
