Looking for two books

[Johnny]

Hi y'all ! This is probably a long shot but....

I'm looking for two books as presents for a local bilingual buddy of mine:

"Amulet" by Roberto Bolano, though I am looking for the book in his native language, "Amuleto". This book has been impossible for me to find (in spanish) in Buenos Aires. It seems to be out of print here. I have been in and out of every book store on Corrientes between Callao and Ave. Julio. No luck !

And, "Catch 22" in english. Walrus doesn't have a copy at the moment.

New or used would be ok. Thanks, and if you like, please send me a pm.

www.mercadolibre.com.ar
Have bought quite a few books there. Used as well as new. Just search and press to buy. Select the option payment upon pick.up. Just check that the buyer is in Capital Federal (or wherever you are) You will receive a mail with the e-mailadress to the vendor and you can then send him a mail and go visit his store and pay.

There is a huge network of bookstores who sell new and used books here:www.buscalibros.com.ar.

Through them I found out of stock books.

Thanks for the help Roxana. "Amuleto" is a real tough find right now. Mercadolibre has tons of Bolano, but not "Amuleto". BTW, the "buscalibros" work isn't working. I'll keep looking !

I already sent the request to buscaslibros.com, they will answer in 48 business hours. I will let you know.

The 48 hours passed and they didnt reply. They said to try again in two weeks, as new bookstores are getting into their network.

However I wanted to tell you that the author of Amuleto is Roberto Bolanio ( written with enie, the spanish letter)

Do you know the editorial company?

Hi Roxana,

I put in a request as you did with buscaslibros and never heard back. Yes, the author of "Amuleto" is Roberto Bolano(I don't have the N-yeah available). I don't know the publishing company for the book in the native language. Like I said, I have done alot of searching for it without success. Maybe they will print some more soon.

I found a version to download, google 'amuleto roberto bolaño pdf'

By the way, I was surprised about the political views of the book!
