Roberto Bolaño’s 2666, the Funneling Effect of Capitalism, and the Production, Consumption, and Proliferation of Violence for Profit

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

<p>Roberto Bolaño's novel 2666 is a realist text, one that reflects the simple fact that in contemporary capitalism, the physical destruction of female bodies is a profitable enterprise; one that forces its readers to confront their complicity or outright participation in violence against women; and one that relates directly to violence against women as consumable entertainment in American mass culture.</p>
