The Savage Detectives: The Savage Detectives ("Los Detectives Salvajes" in Spanish) is a novel by the Chilean author Roberto Bolaño in 1998.  Natasha Wimmer's English translation was published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux in 2007.  The novel tells the story of the search for a 1920s Mexican poet, Cesárea Tinajero, by two 1970s poets, the Chilean Arturo Belano (alter ego of Bolaño) and the Mexican Ulises Lima.

Arturo Belano: Arturo Belano is the alter ego of the Chilean writer Roberto Bolaño.  The character's first appearance was in the novella "Distant Star", where he was the narrator, while his most prominent role was in "The Savage Detectives" where he and fellow writer Ulises Lima are the central characters.  Belano also appears in several short stories and in the novella "Amulet"; he is of the same age and nationality as Bolaño, with many shared elements in their biographies including a move from Chile to Mexico in their teens with their families, traveling around the world, and finally settling in Spain.  According to Bolaño's notes, Belano is also the narrator of the novel "2666".

Woes of the True Policeman: Woes of the True Policeman ("Los sinsabores del verdadero policía" in Spanish) is a novel written by Chilean author Roberto Bolaño and published posthumously.  The novel was first released in Spanish in 2011.  Larry Rohter in his review of the English translation in "the New York Times" said "The novel offers readers plot lines and characters that supplement or propose variations on Mr. Bolaño’s 900-page magnum opus, "2666"".  An English-language translation by Natasha Wimmer was published in the US on November 13, 2012, by Farrar, Straus and Giroux.  An editorial note appended to the book by Bolaño’s widow describes it as “a project that was begun in the 1980s and continued to be a work in progress up until the year 2003 [...] this edition was undertaken with the unwavering intent to respect Bolaño’s work and the firm pledge to offer the reader the novel as it had been found in his files.”

" The New York Times" described him as "the most significant Latin American literary voice of his generation".

2666: 2666 is the last novel by Roberto Bolaño.  It was released in 2004, a year after Bolaño's death.  Its themes are manifold, and it circulates around an elusive German author and the unsolved and ongoing murders of women in Santa Teresa, a violent city inspired by Ciudad Juárez and its epidemic of female homicides.  In addition to Santa Teresa, settings and themes include the Eastern Front in World War II, the academic world, mental illness, journalism, and the breakdown of relationships and careers.  "2666" explores 20th-century degeneration through a wide array of characters, locations, time periods, and stories within stories.

Terry Southern: Terry Southern (May 1, 1924 – October 29, 1995) was an American novelist, essayist, screenwriter, and university lecturer, noted for his distinctive satirical style.
