The book analyzes Gabriel García Márquez's journalistic history alongside his ability to compose great novels. Molina chooses different journalistic and literary texts from García Márquez, written at different times, to demonstrate how he combines his storytelling ability and his journalistic craft.
In this book Gene H. Bell-Villada has compiled a series of interviews by various authors. In his introduction he states, "This particular Conversations gathering comes with an unusual feature: it contains several interviews that were conducted by Latin Americans and/or Colombians, sometimes on Latin American soil, and always in Spanish, sans interpreters. In each of these instances the culture and nationality of the interviewer makes an enormous difference for the dynamics of the exchange. The encounters in Castilian offer a glimpse of the author at his most informal, forthright, and personable."
Arango criticizes and analyzes eight authors (Hernán Cortéz, José Eustasio Rivera, Miguel Angel Asturias, Mariano Azuela, Agustín Yañéz, Juan Rulfo, Gabriel García Márquez, and Isabel Allende)on the impact of their writing, their styles, and their lives.

"El propósito de hacer un glosario, segun la escritora Piedad Bonnett, es penetrar en el alma y el pensamiento del nobel colombiano [por una vía alterna, midiendo sus énfases y paseándonos por toda clase de tópicos, de lo ridículo a lo sublime, para gozar con su perspectiva del mundo]. Mundo garciamarquiano que en este libro comienza con la evocación del [acordeón] y termina con la palabra [zapato]."
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."

Notes:
This work is a type of analysis that is traditionally known as a themeology, in other words, it talks about the interrelationships between the literary works of this kind. The author begins classifying the novels in the following categories: (a) "Enfoques," which is more or less the perspective through which the flow of information is regulated. (b) "Testigos," as the name says it. the witness of the novel is the same imaginary narrator, who at the same time, imposes his perspective. (c) "Intimidades," novels in which the author looks behind the characters and relevant historic situations, he expresses that the reader is who solicits that intimate look. (d) "Posmodernidad," where the new historic novel coincides with the postmodernism. (e) "Irreverencia," Robert Graves was the first that included this characteristic in the historic novels, by taking history precisely as a sketch made by historians and completed by the novelists. (f) "Depuración," by the interpretation of the author, is an inherent process to the historic novel, for which in Anglosaxon literature, there has been a distinction between romance and novel. (g) "Pronósticos," where it says that literary criticism should also be prospective, lastly (h) "Diferencias," where the author exposes his theoric differences with Seymour Menton.
