What People Are Saying

Chicago Sun-Times Book Week
El mayor placer, como en todos los libros de García Márquez, es la misteriosa pero siempre convincente suspensión de las normas de la realidad ... una gran historia humana, despreocupada del tiempo, contada por uno de los más evocadores escritores de este siglo.
Newsweek
Una historia de amor de increíble fuerza y delicioso sentido del humor ... humana, llena de comicidad, de gran impulso emotivo: en fin, extraordinaria.
The New York Times
Una novela rica y expansiva cuyo poder narrativo sólo compite con la generosidad de su visión.
Thomas Pynchon The New York Times
Revolucionario en su atrevimiento al sugerir que las promesas de amor hechas con la presunción de durar toda la vida --idiotez juvenil para algunos-- pueden ser honradas muchos años más tarde, cuando deberíamos haber adquirido más sabiduría, al enfrentarnos con lo innegable ... Un libro brillante y desgarrador.

Meet the Author

Gabriel García Márquez
Gabriel García Márquez

Gabriel García Márquez nació en Aracataca, Colombia en 1927. Asistió a la Universidad Nacional de Colombia en Bogotá y luego trabajó como periodista en El Espectador. Posteriormente sirvió como corresponsal en Roma, París, Barcelona, Caracas y Nueva York. Es autor de varias novelas y colecciones de cuentos, incluyendo El coronel no tiene quien le escriba, El otoño del patriarca, La increíble y triste historia de la cándida Eréndida y de su abuela desalmada, Crónica de una muerte anunciada, El general en su laberinto, Doce cuentos peregrinos, Del amor y otros demonios y, más recientemente, Memoria de mis putas tristes y su autobiografía Vivir para contarla. Fue galardonado con el Premio Nobel de Literatura en 1982.

Biography

Gabriel García Márquez is the product of his family and his nation. Born in the small coastal town of Aracataca in northern Colombia, he was raised by his maternal grandparents. As a child, he was mesmerized by stories spun by his grandmother and her sisters -- a rich gumbo of superstitions, folk tales, and ghost stories that fired his youthful imagination. And from his grandfather, a colonel in Colombia's devastating Civil War, he learned about his country's political struggles. This potent mix of Liberal politics, family lore, and regional mythology formed the framework for his magical realist novels.

When his grandfather died, García Márquez was sent to Sucre to live (for the first time) with his parents. He attended university in Bogotá, where he studied law in accordance with his parents' wishes. It was here that he first read The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka and discovered a literature he understood intuitively -- one with nontraditional plots and structures, just like the stories he had known all his life. His studies were interrupted when the university was closed, and he moved back north, intending to pursue both writing and law; but before long, he quit school to pursue a career in journalism.

In 1954 his newspaper sent García Márquez on assignment to Italy, marking the start of a lifelong self-imposed exile from the horrors of Colombian politics that took him to Barcelona, Paris, New York, and Mexico. Influenced by American novelist William Faulkner, creator of the fictionalized Yoknapatawpha County, and by the powerful intergenerational tragedies of the Greek dramatist Sophocles, García Márquez began writing fiction, honing a signature blend of fantasy and reality that culminated in the 1967 masterpiece One Hundred Years of Solitude. This sweeping epic became an instant classic and set the stage for more bestselling novels, including Love in the Time of Cholera, Love and Other Demons, and Memories of My Melancholy Whores. In addition, he has completed the first volume of a shelf-bending memoir, and his journalism and nonfiction essays have been collected into several anthologies.

In 1982, García Márquez was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. In his acceptance speech, he called for a "sweeping utopia of life, where no one will be able to decide for others how they die, where love will prove true and happiness be possible, and where the races condemned to one hundred years of solitude will have, at last and forever, a second opportunity on earth." Few writers have pursued that utopia with more passion and vigor than this towering 20th-century novelist.

Good To Know

Gabriel José García Márquez' affectionate nickname is Gabo.

García Márquez' first two novellas were completed long before their actual release dates, but might not have been published if it weren't for his friends, who found the manuscripts in a desk drawer and a suitcase, and sent them in for publication.

    Romantica

    Es el mejor libro de los que yo he leido, ya que no cae en lo ridiculo de toda novela romatica, este es un tipo de obra que se queda por siempre en tu memoria pues aun yo en lo particular no alcanzo a comprender como una persona puede vivir para otra sin ni siquiera tenerla, lo que el hombre siente en esta novela definitivamente diria yo que es amor pues respeto que ella siguiera su vida aunque a el le doliera en el alma.

    El amor traspasa las barreras del tiempo!!!!

    Como primerizo lector de las obras de Garcia Marquez me atrevo a decir que esta novela relata la historia de Florentino Ariza y su eterno amor por Fermina Daza. Esta novela nos da una idea de como el amor es capaz de traspasar la barrera del tiempo y de como crece a medida que se aneja en el sotano del tiempo. Es como que si el amor fuera como el vino mientras mas anejo, mejor!
