So while his fiction has taken on a life of its own , bola o remains shrouded in myth and mystery .
因此，虽然波拉诺的小说反映了自己的生活，但他身上仍然笼罩着神秘的传奇面纱。
But it is best to view bola o 's writing about literature like a romantic tribute to a beautiful , fickle and occasionally sadistic mistress .
但最好还是将波拉诺对文学的描述看成是对一个美丽善变、有时候甚至虐待成性的情妇的浪漫颂歌。
Bola o was a writer with tricks up his sleeve , and he distributed his wiles across many genres : novellas , poetry , short stories , essays and the epic 1100-page " 2666 " .
In his acceptance speech for the romulo gallegos literature prize , awarded for " the savage detectives " , bola o offered an intimate sketch of the recklessness of the writer 's life , describing it as " a dangerous game " .
