"Since the appearance of the first publication of One Hundred Years of Solitude (1970) in German, Gabriel García Márquez is considered one of the great authors of present literature in Germany. Gabriel García Márquez's success culminated with the Nobel Prize in 1982 and now begins again through his autobiography, Living to Tell the Tale. Harald Irnberger, who has known Gabriel García Márquez and his works for thirty years, looks beyond the magic realism and into the political and journalistic aspects of Gabriel García Márquez. This book submits numerous facts and interpretations." -www.amazon.de
