1.2666: A Novel2666: A Novel
from Farrar, Straus and Giroux
Price: $18.00

Customer Review:
This work, by one of a handful of brilliant writers, spans the whole of the imagination. Clearly without equal, the late Robeto Bolano, has made concrete dreams and razor edged light seem commonplace. Pervasive, funny and savage all at the same instant

from Vintage Books
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
I tried and tried and tried and tried to finish this book, and finally did, THREE MONTHS LATER, and I read Moby Dick in 48 hours (college assignment, 48 hours, no sleep, even read it in the tub). I am not a slow reader.
There just wasn't enough to keep you interested in this story, and not... more info

from Harper Perennial Modern Classics
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
I had to read this book for my English class. I didn't know anything about it other than it's legendary status. As I read it, I enjoyed it. It took me time to get through it and for me, it was not the kind of book I could sit down and read a page or two during commercials of the TV show I was... more info

Customer Review:
The House on Mango Street
Sandra Cisneros
The House on Mango Street starts in a very unusual style, and it continues in that way for the entire story. Sandra Cisneros wrote the book in a simple and very up front style. The major theme/subject behind the story seems to be growing up and... more info

5.The Paris Enigma: A NovelThe Paris Enigma: A Novel
from Harper
Price: $17.11

Customer Review:
I was surprise I actually made it through this book especially since its only 244 pages long. It has nothing going for itself since it sets out to do way too many things and ends up not doing any of them well. Read some old Carter Dickson locked room mystery instead.

7.Borges: Collected FictionsBorges: Collected Fictions
from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $12.79

Customer Review:
My first experience with the writing of Borges. I enjoy his ability to bring the reader into the middle of an ongoing experience - that is, to create the sense that the story had been going on long before one starts reading. My only hesitation in this review is that the translation might make his... more info

from New Directions
Price: $12.55

Customer Review:
I speak both Spanish and English (and lived Argentina) and I can say that these English translations, particularly those of Yates, are some of the best I have come across. (Yates was Borges's first English translator and the translator of another remarkable but little known Argentine writer, Edgar... more info
