We have a really cool comic book section (we hold Persepolis in Spanish!!) and I kind of spent a little too much time reading the graphic novel interpretation of Proust's "À la recherche du temps perdu" translated into Spanish. Another Chilean poet you might like: Vicente Huidobro. Reading his stuff for my poetry class and its so vanguardista it hurts.
