(Abstract) "The Paris-based literary magazine Mundo Nuevo disseminated some of the most original and experimental Latin American writing from 1966--the date of its founding--to 1968, the year its editor-in-chief resigned and the magazine moved to Buenos Aires. Despite its fame, the magazine's role in the Boom and the cultural Cold War has been misunderstood by critics, who have either viewed Mundo Nuevo as a tool for CIA propaganda (it was recipient of CIA funds for two years) or non-political, avant-garde magazine...as much of the material from the archives in the Congress for Cultural Freedom demonstrates, Mundo Nuevo was set up by the Congress as a bulwark against the Cuban Revolution, and used the rhetoric of disinterested, cosmopolitan literature to counter the Revolution's model of literature engagée."

According to the author, journalism, commonly classified as a literary sub genre, has been a constant presence for García Márquez. The reading of García Márquez's journalistic work in relation to his fiction is essential to complement his narrative world because in his first journalistic period (1948-1960), the Nobel prize-winner experiments with a variety of styles, techniques, and genres that culminate in his masterpiece.

Viewed on 11 February, 2008. Brief mention of García Márquez's article, "Con las Malvinas o sin ellas" (24 April, 1982), in which he discusses "los desaparecidos" and "las Madres de la Plaza de Mayo."
"En Buenos Aires, capital de la consagración de 'Cien años de soledad,' Gabriel García Márquez participó de manera invisible en un homenaje que duró tres días sin olvidar que, pese a la ausencia corporal del autor, la literatura que éste escribió ofició la magia de considerarlo presente. Presentes estuvieron el hermano de Gabo, Jaime, el historiador Félix Luna, escritores, periodistas, editores y libreos. Un público atento y memorioso añadió la concurrencia de otras presencias invisibles: La fidelidad, la admiración, el afecto. Este Libro atestigua esa ceremonia inolvidable."
