Notes:
Cobo-Borda begins with anecdotes on his first encounter with Alvaro Mutis, then procedes to talk about García Márquez in relation to the interpretation of Pedro Páramo and its influence on Gabriel García Márquez.
The author chooses to analyze how after Gabriel García Márquez won the Nobel prize, his novel reaches a broad diffusion, almost losing its roots, thus becoming pertinent that these be traced, reconstructing, piece by piece, the passionate process with which a writer comes to be who he is, in a continuous counterpoint of exploration of the reality and assimilation of the literary forms that allow him to express himself.
