Mientras Remo Morán busca la manera de subsistir sin abandonar su sueño, Jan Schrella vive confinado en la buhardilla que ambos comparten, desde donde envía cartas delirantes a sus escritores de ciencia-ficción favoritos. En la ciudad y en sus vidas todo lo importante parece suceder en ese momento mágico y efímero que separa la noche del día, en ese filo en el que el amor puede tornarse desamor y toda obsesión puede ser el germen de un futuro éxito. Bolaño escribió esta novela a comienzos de la década de los ochenta y, como ocurrió con gran parte de su obra, volvió sobre ella durante mucho tiempo. Aquí se encuentra ya la esencia del fascinante universo literario del autor. El mejor Bolaño, el que escribe apasionadamente sobre temas como la búsqueda, la literatura, el amor, la juventud, la amistad, el humor y la rebeldía está ya en este libro.
The spirit of science fiction takes place in Mexico City during the seventies and tells the life of two young writers. While Remo Moran is looking for a way to survive without abandoning his dream, Jan Schrella lives confined in the garret they share, from where he sends delusional letters to his favorite science fiction writers. In the city and in their lives, everything important seems to happen in that magical and ephemeral moment that separates the night from the day, on that edge where love can become indifference and any obsession can be the germ of a future success. Bolaño wrote this novel at the beginning of the decade of the eighties and, as it happened with great part of its work, returned during her long time. Here is already the essence of the author's fascinating literary universe. The best Bolaño, who writes passionately about topics such as search, literature, love, youth, friendship, humor and rebellion is already in this book.
