Natasha Wimmer links

Having read (twice!) Roberto Bolaño's "The Savage Detectives" and having just started on his final book, the monumental "2666," I wanted to post several links having to do with both books and their translator, Natasha Wimmer:

• By way of introduction, here's a short email interview with Wimmer in the NYT Papercuts blog, December 2007.
• A summer 2007 interview with Wimmer while she was at work on 2666, on the website The Quarterly Conversation
• A short statement by Wimmer on the Words Without Borders site from December 2008
• Wimmer's own biographical essay on Bolaño (PDF)
• A November 2008 interview in the Village Voice
• A Jan. 16, 2009 interview in the Christian Science Monitor
