(Abstract) The author argues that 'El otoño del patriarca' (1976) and 'El arpa y la sombra' (1979) contribute to the building of knowledge about the modern Latin American by presenting the possibility of an alternate accurate representation of the past and providing a proposal for a possible utopia. Gabriel García Márquez and Alejo Carpentier wrote about the people, by the people, and for the people, transforming the knowledge that Latin Americans have about themselves, their politics, economics, social standards, and culture.

Zapata reminisces Gabriel García Márquez's life and works with a candid narrative of thirty-three years since he has been introduced to Marquez and his One Hundred Years of Solitude. It is illustrated with caricatures by Pancho, Zapata, Ras, and Ugo as well as pictures of distinctive facets of Márquez's life and covers of several of his works. There is also a drawing of "Remedios" done by Gabriel García Márquez himself.
Fernández writes, “Transcurridos cuatro décadas desde su aparición, ‘Cien años de soledad’ conserva intacta la magia de ese mundo centrado en Macondo. Su éxito extraordinario guarda relación sin duda con la visión maravillosa y maravillada de la realidad y de la historia de América Latina que proponía y aún propone”.

(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." Ph.D Dissertation.
"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."
