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 authors have traced magazines, archives, newspapers, and have interviewed people who met Gabriel García Márquez. Gabriel García Márquez, obsessed with power, leaders, and the highest diplomatic mediation, saw in the Cuban patriarch the model for which Latin America could some day construct a proper socialism. This book comes from a double fascination: Cuba and literature, where the lives of Fidel Castro and Gabriel García Márquez are told with their grandeur and misery.
This work relies on the hypothesis that Aureliano Buendía's character is based on the life of General Ramón Demetrio Morán. Thus Henríquez affirms that One Hundred Years of Solitude has been written in code and the literary style of the Nobel's fantasy and imagination impeded to find the true background of the novel.
This book constitutes a profound analysis of the partial work of a number of selected texts, that point out the socio-historic character in nine hispanic novelists. This series of critical essays about nine representative authors by Manuel Antonio Arango L., is a clear effort to study and deepen the social context of Hispanic literature and integrate it to the history of Hispanic America.
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.
This work presents: 1) Definitions and locations: magical realism between modern and postmodern fiction. 2) "From a far source within": magical realism as defocalized narrative defocalization. 3) Encoding the ineffable: a textual poetics for magical realism. 4) "Along the knife-edge of change": magical realism and the post-colonial dynamics of alterity. 5) "Women and women and women": a feminine element in magical realism?
