Hello! I finished "American Tabloid" by Ellroy today. I enjoyed it very much but is has to be the moist violent book I have read. And the characters are some of the most vicious, even thought some of them are likeable, althought they are less likeable than other "likeable bad guys", fictional people like Tony Soprano and Michael Corleone. I am not an american althought because of Puerto Rico's particular political status i am an american citizen, but I do not pretend that I understand american history in all it complexity but if you agree with what this book says, american poltics in tha last century were very dirty, violent and immoral.
Reading the book I was reminded of two movies, "JFK" and "Natural born killers", because the tone its very similar, and the characters can be as ugly as the ones that appear in those movies.
Today I also started another book, the author is from Chile and his name is Roberto Bolano, and the name of the novel is "Los detectives salvajes" which can be translate roughly to "The wild detectives". It is about the lives of two young mexican poets searching for a missing girl. I have not read more than 20 or 30 pages so far, but everything so far looks promising, it has a feel similar to "Rayuela" and "On the road".
I guess this is all for today, bye
