(Abstract) "Both William Faulkner and Gabriel García Márquez introduce the olfactory as a focal element in their writing, producing works that challenge the singular primacy of sight as the unrivaled means by which the New World might be understood...their fictional olfactory situations and language establish a critique of the modern era, of an all-too-Cartesian modernity in the world, and point to a new poetics specifically for the New World, where there might still be hope for the memory and the promise of a land that is 'fresh from the hand of God.'" Ph.D. Dissertation.

(Abstract) "In One Hundred Years of Solitude, the character development of the mater familias protagonist Ursula Iguarán along with her daughter, Amaranta Buendía and her daughter-in-law Rebeca Buendía are analyzed critically and theoretically through textual references and criticism...What we find are independent, desirable women subjects whose energetic determination empowers them and the society in which they live."

In this article, García Márquez discusses the origins of storytelling.
This is a review of García Márquez's memoir, Vivir para contarla. Mujica states: "The book functions as a kind of guide to works such as One Hundred Years of Solitude, Chronicle of a Death Foretold, and Love in the Time of Cholera, illuminating material familiar to readers and placing it in its real-life context. Vivir para contarla covers approximately the first thirty years of the author's life, the formative period that stretches from his birth until the mid-1950s."
