by Gabriel García Márquez (Author)

Un fascinante recorrido literario a través de las ficciones que contribuyeron a la construcción del espacio mítico de Cien años de soledad.

«...lo que hay entre La hojarasca y Cien años de soledad son unos quince años de fastidiarse mucho, de vivir mucho y de estar pendiente de esto todos los días, tratando de ver cómo eran las cosas. Gabriel García Márquez

García Márquez sostuvo en diversas oportunidades que para escribir un libro primero había que aprender a escribirlo y, solo entonces, enfrentarse a la máquina de escribir. A él le tomó casi veinte años "vivir" en Macondo, para aprender a escribir ese portento de la literatura de todos los tiempos que es Cien años de soledad. Esta antología, realizada con el ánimo de rastrear la andadura del escritor, compila todos los textos publicados en los que ese universo mítico fue tomando forma. Desde sus apuntes para una novela de 1950 y primeros relatos, hasta La hojarasca, El coronel no tiene quien le escriba y La mala hora en 1966, en lo que supone la efervescente antesala a la creación de Cien años de soledad.

Bienvenido, lector, a éste Camino a Macondo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A fascinating literary journey through the fictions that helped build the mythical space of One Hundred Years of Solitude.

"...between Leaf Storm and One Hundred Years of Solitude there are about fifteen years of hard work, hard living, and keeping tabs on it every day, trying to see how things were." --Gabriel García Márquez

On several occasions, García Márquez stated that to write a book first you must learn how to write it, and only then could you face the typewriter. He "lived" almost twenty years in Macondo before he could write the all-time literary marvel that is One Hundred Years of Solitude. This anthology, compiled in an effort to track the writer's path, includes each published work where the mythical universe slowly took shape, from his notes for a 1950 novel and his first short stories, to Leaf Storm, No One Writes to the Colonel, and Evil Hour in 1966, what was apparently the prelude to creating One Hundred Years of Solitude.

Welcome, reader, to The Road to Macondo.

Author Biography

Gabriel García Márquez (1927- 2014), nacido en Colombia, es una de las figuras más importantes e influyentes de la literatura universal. Ganador del Premio Nobel de Literatura en 1982, fue, además de novelista, cuentista, ensayista, crítico cinematográfico, autor de guiones y, sobre todo, un intelectual comprometido con los grandes problemas de nuestro tiempo, y en primer término con los que afectaban a su amada Colombia y a Hispanoamérica en general. Máxima figura del llamado «realismo mágico», en el que historia e imaginación tejen el tapiz de una literatura viva, que respira por todos sus poros, fue en definitiva el hacedor de uno de los mundos narrativos más densos de significado que ha dado la lengua española en el siglo XX. Entre sus novelas más importantes figuran Cien años de soledad, El coronel no tiene quien le escriba, Relato de un náufrago, Crónica de una muerte anunciada, La mala hora, El general en su laberinto, el libro de relatos Doce cuentos peregrinos, El amor en los tiempos del cólera y Diatriba de amor contra un hombre sentado. En el año 2002 publicó la primera parte de su autobiografía, Vivir para contarla; en 2004 volvió a la ficción con Memorias de mis putas tristes, y en 2012 sus relatos fueron recopilados en Todos los cuentos.
