This book gathers articles, essays and notes about Colombian literature written between 1967 and 1997. Gabriel García Márquez takes the lead in what the author calls "the mid-century generation."
The interpretative proposal of this work that can very well be seen as a case of cultural study, opens the door to a necessary dialogue about the people who animated the previous readings of the literary work of the Colombian author and the pertinence that these might still have. It also suggests that a footpath of reading is left to go over to better understand the unfolded world of García Márquez's narrations and their hybridization so appropriate for the American world.

Notes:
"In the current essay, Eliana Albala- with proof in her hands- objectively reveals the precise formula of a writer who practices witchcraft and alchemy, but that in his sintaxis, is the most obedient and respectful knower of the classics in his language." -Back cover of book
