A review by manoncremers
The Third Reich by Roberto Bolaño

2.0

Required reading for my Spanish Literature class: while Amuleto was entertaining and opened up debate surrounding the Tlatelolco massacre, The Third Reich left much to be desired. I did like how the subtlety of the game blurred the lines between reality and fiction and how that affected our main character. However, much is to be desired and it certainly didn't reach its full potential. It would have been a bit better if the first half of the book didn't just let the reader wander around, waiting for something to happen.
