"Books are the only homeland of the true writer, books that may sit on shelves or in the memory," wrote Roberto Bolaño. Ten years after his death, the legacy of Chilean author Roberto Bolaño lives not just in his poetry and prose but also in the myth that surrounds a man who has come to define 21st-century Latin American literature. This panel delves into the Bolaño mystique, convening the voices that have engaged both with his words and his ghosts.
