It was 10 years ago Columbine happened, one of those "where were you" events in American life. If you think you know the majority of the facts about the shooting, Dave Cullen's new book reveals so much more - and turns the whole tragedy into a look back at so many things: the late '90s high school culture, the New West, and foreshadowing the 2000s and 9/11 two years later.

From the Washington Post: "Not since Gabriel García Márquez, whose masterpiece, One Hundred Years of Solitude, turns 40 this year, has a Latin American redrawn the map of world literature so emphatically as Roberto Bolaño does with The Savage Detectives … The Savage Detectives alone should grant him immortality. It's an outstanding meditation on art, truth and the search for roots and the self, a kind of road novel set in 1970s Mexico that springs from the same roots as Alfonso Cuarón's film 'Y tu mamá también.'"
