  “Extraordinary . . . [Bolaño’s] greatest work.” —James Wood, The New York Times The book that catapulted Roberto Bolaño into international literary stardom, By Night in Chile is the final testimony of Sebastián Urrutia Lacroix—Chilean priest and member of Opus Dei, eminent literary critic and failed poet—as he is haunted by a shadowy figure from his past. In Urrutia’s feverish last hours, a deluge of memories pours from him: of hobnobbing with Santiago’s most unctuous literati; of undertaking a mission to save Europe’s decaying cathedrals from existential threat by pigeon excrement; of retreating into Greco-Roman poetry during the darkest chapter of modern Chilean history; of tutoring Augusto Pinochet in Marxist theory, so that the General may better understand his enemies. Throughout he insists, with fracturing conviction, that he was always on the right side of history. A novel about high art and fascism, silence and complicity, and, ultimately, the weight of damnation, Roberto Bolaño’s By Night in Chile is a deep-cutting satire and a work of devastating moral insight.A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux

  Nothing Means Anything (And...

  Finally, a philosophy book that doesn't take itself as seriously as the theorists it eviscerates! "Nothing Means Anything" mercilessly skewers postmodernism's most pretentious thinkers with savage wit and zero academic mercy. 
  Journey through the impenetrable jargon, circular logic, and breathtaking hypocrisy of French intellectuals who made careers out of stating the obvious in the most confusing way possible. From Derrida's word games to Foucault's paranoid power trips, from Baudrillard's reality-denial to Lyotard's grand narrative about the end of grand narratives, this book translates postmodern gobbledygook into hilarious plain English. 
  Whether you're a traumatized humanities student seeking revenge on the theorists who destroyed your GPA, a curious reader wondering what all the fuss is about, or just someone who enjoys watching pretentious nonsense get thoroughly roasted, this irreverent guide delivers. You'll learn how to sound profound while saying absolutely nothing, why your IKEA catalog is more meaningful than your actual life, and how to win any argument by claiming everything is a "discourse" (don't forget the air quotes). 
  Warning: Reading this book in public may cause uncontrollable snorting, concerned looks from strangers, and a weird sense of relief that someone finally said what we've all been thinking about these turtleneck-wearing, cigarette-smoking harbingers of intellectual doom. May cause spontaneous clarity and the disturbing realization that these insufferable French people might occasionally have been right about something.

  While Maxi's out running errands for his mother, he bumps into Ella, a childhood acquaintance… all grown up and strikingly beautiful. Ella always had a crush on Maxi and the sparks between them begin to fly but neither wants to let on.  
  While over to Ella's house on a visit, Maxi discovers, what he considers to be a treasure map. He, Ella, and two of her two girlfriends embark on a hilarious adventure to find the hidden treasure. Their search takes them from a scrapyard to a gay bar on an exclusive Island with many upsets in between. They hire actors from a drama class as decoys. They employ sex as a distraction. Everybody tells lies… because nobody wants to know the truth. Should they find the treasure, will it be all they hoped it would be?

  If you enjoy Grand Theft Auto, The Movie Hangover, Bikers, The Russian Mafia, humor chased with an Play Station vibe, 
  consider listening to Grand Theft History. 
  Synopsis 
  CEO Larisha Pushkin wants more power. She buys out Lizer, a pharmaceutical company. Yet it is the only company which does what is says; Change Your Life with Lizer. Years ago, the drug ‘figene’ took the World by storm. Described like Crystal Meth with a kick of Viagra. The gem of this opioid, users become who, not what they consume. The drug changes the internal part of the person, not their exterior. Users of the Nap (Napoleon) Ghost, give themselves enhanced charisma, success in most of their affairs. Unknown athletes are now finding endorsement deals. CEOs who were found to be weak are now lions of prowess. 
  The drug’s fatal side-effect is the fate knocker. In the Nap Ghost drug, death at the age 53, imprisonment, and poisoning give users a taste of their dreams. 
  Neuro-Physicist Jim Below founded the company. He refused to create an antidote to the kicker. This move gives Larissa the urgency to take control of the company.  
  Once in love, both Jim and Larissa are now on a collision course. Of course, they dare not speak of it to anyone. Like the rap adage goes, More Money, More Problems.  
  Volume Louder or Two will follow with enough interest. Peace Out. Doc King Cole
