About this product

Product Information

In Not to Read , Alejandro Zambra outlines his own particular theory of reading that also offers a kind of blurry self-portrait, or literary autobiography. Whether writing about Natalia Ginzburg, typewriters and computers, Paul L autaud, or how to be silent in German, his essays function as a laboratory for his novels, a testing ground for ideas, readings and style. Not to Read also presents an alternative pantheon of Latin American literature - Zambra would rather talk about Nicanor Parra than Pablo Neruda, Mario Levrero than Gabriel Garc a M rquez. His voice is that of a trusted friend telling you about a book or an author he's excited about, how he reads, and why he writes. A standard-bearer of his generation in Chile, with Not to Read Alejandro Zambra confirms he is one of the most engaging writers of our time.

Reviews
'When I read Zambra I feel like someone's shooting fireworks inside my head. His prose is as compact as a grain of gunpowder, but its allusions and ramifications branch out and illuminate even the most remote corners of our minds.' - Valeria Luiselli, author of The Story of My Teeth 'There is no writer like Alejandro Zambra, no one as bold, as subtle, as funny.' - Daniel Alarcon, author of At Night We Walk In Circles 'Falling in love with Zambra's literature is a fascinating road to travel. Imaginative and original, he is a master of short forms; I adore his devastating audacity.' - Enrique Vila-Matas, author of The Illogic of Kassel, Praise for My Documents ' My Documents is also his best: an eclectic, disconcerting, at times harrowing read. A truly beautiful book.' --Daniel Alarcn, author of At Night We Walk in Circles 'Zambra is the author of small classics - short in length, but enormous in every other way. My Documents elevates him to an entirely new level.' -- Valeria Luiselli, author of The Story of My Teeth '[An] excellent collection ... rich and thought-provoking ... If you are going to read Alejandro Zambra, which you should, don't just read My Documents, read everything he's done.' --Chris Power, Guardian, Praise for My Documents ' My Documents is also his best: an eclectic, disconcerting, at times harrowing read. A truly beautiful book.' --Daniel Alarcón, author of At Night We Walk in Circles 'Zambra is the author of small classics - short in length, but enormous in every other way. My Documents elevates him to an entirely new level.' -- Valeria Luiselli, author of The Story of My Teeth '[An] excellent collection ... rich and thought-provoking ... If you are going to read Alejandro Zambra, which you should, don't just read My Documents, read everything he's done.' --Chris Power, Guardian

Excellent seller -- good communication, item exactly as described, reasonably priced, well packed. Seller shipped immediately but the book took over half a month to arrive, due to the carrier used on the first leg, to get the package to USPS.
