pokkari
The Colombian Nobel Prize winner, Gabriel García Márquez (b. 1927), wrote two of the great novels of the twentieth century, One Hundred Years of Solitude and Love in the Time of Cholera. As novelist, short story writer and journalist, García Márquez has one of literature's most instantly recognizable styles and since the beginning of his career has explored a consistent set of themes, revolving around the relationship between power and love. His novels exemplify the transition between modernist and post-modernist fiction and have made magical realism one of the most significant and influential phenomena in contemporary writing. Aimed at students of Latin American and comparative literature, this book provides essential information about García Márquez's life and career, his published work in literature and journalism, and his political engagement. It connects the fiction effectively to the writer's own experience and explains his enduring importance in world literature.

In this exhaustive and enlightening biography--nearly two decades in the making--Gerald Martin dexterously traces the life and times of one of the twentieth century's greatest literary titans, Nobel Prize-winner Gabriel Garc a M rquez. Martin chronicles the particulars of an extraordinary life, from his upbringing in backwater Colombia and early journalism career, to the publication of One Hundred Years of Solitude at age forty, and the wealth and fame that followed. Based on interviews with more than three hundred of Garcia Marquez's closest friends, family members, fellow authors, and detractors--as well as the many hours Martin spent with 'Gabo' himself--the result is a revelation of both the writer and the man. It is as gripping as any of Gabriel Garc a M rquez's powerful journalism, as enthralling as any of his acclaimed and beloved fiction.

The long-awaited first biography of Mario Vargas Llosa, Latin America's greatest contemporary writer, from acclaimed biographer Gerald Martin. Mario Vargas Llosa is often considered not only the greatest contemporary writer from his continent but the most influential intellectual in the entire Hispanic world. This is the first authoritative and comprehensive biography of the brilliant author of Conversation in the Cathedral, Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter, and The Feast of the Goat, a man who ran for the presidency of Peru in 1990 and in 2010 won the Nobel Prize for Literature. The long life of Vargas Llosa is one of variety and eccentricity. He has never stopped writing and traveling, and he has certainly never been far from political controversy. Handsome, elegant, and debonair, Vargas Llosa not only is a giant of social influence and literature but has been on a political journey that has taken him across the spectrum. But behind his compelling public story, his personal life is one of deep intrigue. This captivating biography will be the first to unveil the mystery surrounding the personal, literary, and political relationships between Vargas Llosa and the public, his family, and his contemporaries-confidantes and enemies alike-including Gabriel Garc a M rquez. With privileged access to Vargas Llosa's archives and papers, Gerald Martin brings meticulous research, scrupulous attention to detail, and narrative verve to bear on a life that has towered over global literature for decades.

Gabriel Garcia Marquez, author of the modern classic One Hundred Years of Solitude and Love in the Time of Cholera, is one of the greatest and most popular writers of the late-twentieth century. As Gerald Martin tells the story of the author's fascinating rise to wealth and international fame, he reveals the tensions in Garcia Marquez's life between celebrity and literary quality, between politics and writing, and between power, solitude and love. Interviewing more than three hundred people including Fidel Castro, Felipe Gonzalez, Carlos Fuentes and Mario Vargas Llosa, the author's large family as well as 'Gabo' himself, Martin immerses himself in Garcia Marquez's world. This at first 'tolerated' and now 'official' biography is as gripping and revealing as the writer's journalism and as complex and involving as any of his fiction.
