Drugs, work, literature: the dealer’s figure in the wild detectives by Roberto Bolaño

Main Article Content
Abstract
Our reading of Bolaño’s novel reveals the literary dealer-poet-detective figure and his revulsive capacity to outwit the productivist labor imperative and the art consecration, at the same time. We shift the focus of a certain romanticization of the psychoactive stimuli in relation to the artistic creation to attend the posibilities of a liberation economy that restores the aesthetics dimention of his very own existence to the subject.
