Mujica reviews the book Luminous Cities by Eduardo García Aguilar. Part of the book takes place on the coast of Colombia, in the town of Riohacha. Mujica writes, "This area known for its violence and lawlessness is also the inspiration for the best loved novels of Gabriel García Márquez, whom the people venerate, along with Octavio Paz. In this beautiful but savage land, children and their teachers flock to the public library and films by García Márquez attract steady crowds. In Riohacha the juxtaposition of the magical and the commonplace that marks García Márquez's writing is just part of the landscape."
