by Gabriel García Márquez
(
Book
)
174 editions published between 2002 and 2010 in 19 languages and held by 3,306 libraries worldwide Publisher's description: In this long-awaited first volume of a planned trilogy, the most acclaimed and revered living Nobel laureate begins to tell us the story of his life. Like all his work, Living to Tell the Tale is a magnificent piece of writing. It spans Gabriel García Márquez's life from his birth in 1927 through the start of his career as a writer to the moment in the 1950s when he proposed to the woman who would become his wife. It has the shape, the quality, and the vividness of a conversation with the reader--a tale of people, places, and events as they occur to him: the colorful stories of his eccentric family members; the great influence of his mother and maternal grandfather; his consuming career in journalism, and the friends and mentors who encouraged him; the myths and mysteries of his beloved Colombia; personal details, undisclosed until now, that would appear later, transmuted and transposed, in his fiction; and, above all, his fervent desire to become a writer. And, as in his fiction, the narrator here is an inspired observer of the physical world, able to make clear the emotions and passions that lie at the heart of a life--in this instance, his own.

La increíble y triste historia de la cándida Eréndira y de su abuela desalmada
by Gabriel García Márquez
(
Book
)
236 editions published between 1971 and 2010 in 18 languages and held by 1,366 libraries worldwide Este libro excepcional reune la novela corta que le otorga su titulo y otros seis relatos mas, de los que todos menos uno pertenecen a la etapa de plena madurez del escritor. Fueron los anos en los que Macondo le abrio las puertas del realismo magico: la frase se hace mas larga y caudalosa, la realidad se expresa mediante formulas magicas y legendarias, los milagros se insertan en la vida cotidiana. La candida Erendira y su abuela desalmada personifican la inocencia y la maldad, el amor y su perversion, y el relato recuerda al mismo tiempo las gestas medievales y los cantos provenzales o trovadorescos, aunque, como siempre, inmersos en ese mundo denso y frutal del Caribe americano. Estas siete narraciones no son ejercicios de estilo, sino siete exploraciones en el mundo definitivo que el escritor habia conquistado de una vez por todas. - from Alibris. more
