"The Violence (1946-1965) was the first arena of generalized violence in Colombia this century. This phenomenon left the terrifying memory of its more than two hundred thousand deaths, together with a country ruined politically and morally. The writers (novels and consecrates) left evidence of this in an enormous body of work that has been, in large part, negatively sanctioned and, in general, poorly researched. To construct a dispassionate critical judgment and a rigorous study of this literature it is necessary, in principal, to outline some criteria that will permit a clear delineation of the corpus of novels that integrate it."||To sustain his argument, Osorio brings up García Márquez's statement, "La literatura colombiana, un fraude a la nación" where he states that since colonial times, the Colombian literature has had at most three or four literary writers and has been encumbered with false prestige. Furthermore, he states that during the 50s no literary tradition or national literature existed; however, since the 50s there has been a surge in literary novels about the violence, among them, García Márquez's, Mejía Vallejo's, and Álvarez Gardeazábal's.

"Translations into Persian, such as paperbacks of John Grisham and Agatha Christie are experiencing a boom market. People also read novels by Toni Morrison and Milan Kundera, as well as political books by Anthony Giddens, Henando de Soto, and Francis Fukuyama. Europe and Latin America remain Iran's key cultural reference points, so many Iranians cherish Sir Karl Popper, Jacques Derrida, Jurgen Habermas, and Gabriel García Márquez."
