Why Charles Bowden is the most kick-ass living writer

I won't even offer any teasers from this article, because I'd just have to re-post the whole thing. If you read just one thing this week, make it this: "Charles Bowden on The War Next Door," from High Country News.

Here Bowden is interviewed about his most recent book, Some of the Dead are Still Breathing

Ken, we just got a stack of this one in on Tuesday. http://www.mariasbookshop.com/book/9781568584492
It looks incredible, kind of a nonfiction exploration of the central meme in Bolano's 2666, and one of the most under-reported atrocities in our hemisphere.
