"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."

Notes:
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.
Edited and with an introduction by Harold Bloom. Contains a biography, a few essays by García Márquez himself, and an essay on magical realism by Gerald Martin.
