"Three weeks before her marriage in 1990, a young woman named Susana has a massive antique mirror hung on her bedroom wall. What is she to think when she discovers a soldier --circa 1863-- living in the room's reflection? And what are her family and fiancée to think, when having fallen deeply in love with him, Susana steps through the glass to enter his bygone world?" -www.films.com

Notes:
Alberto Manguel discuses the topic of Gabriel García Márquez's Memories of My Melancholy Whores and states that "such stuff can, in the hands of great writers, make for splendid literature... Memories of My Melancholy Whores, however, never seems to extend beyond the mere smutty story."
In discussing the theme of the dictator in many novels and reviewing Daniel Pennace's "The Dictator and the Hammock" the author refers to Gabriel García Márquez and states:
"In 1968, Carlos Fuentes had the idea of compiling an anthology of fictional accounts of Latin American dictators, and asked a number of novelist friends to write about a dictator from their own country. They had, alas, what the French call 'the embarrassment of choice.' Though the project never materialized, several writers took up his suggestion. Years later, Augusto Roa Bastos published I the Supreme and Gabriel García Márquez, whose native Colombia was one of the few countries not to boast (or bemoan) a dictator, invented a composite figure for the protagonist of his Autumn of the Patriarch. These were not the first attempts at describing what García Márquez once called 'the only mythological figure Latin America has produced.'"

7 pages., Via online journal., Like many developing countries, agriculture is seen as the vehicle for development also in Pakistan. Our study was aimed to identify the perceptions of farmer community towards the electronic media and relationship between different demographic characteristics of respondents with the use of electronic communication of TV and radio, in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK), a province of Pakistan. Random sampling technique was used for selecting 183 respondents. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics and Chi-square. Results revealed that maximum respondents were agreed that mobile and internet can be a useful source of agricultural information and only 1.6 and 5.5% of the respondents were strongly disagreed about information means, respectively. A maximum number of the respondents were undecided about “agricultural helpline can be a useful source of agricultural information”, only 14.2% of the respondents were strongly agreed with this statement. A highly significant relationship was found between age of respondents and application of information received through radio and TV. On the other side, education of the respondents had a highly significant relationship with the application of information received through radio only. Farming experience of the respondents had no significant relationship with the application of information received through TV and radio. Results suggested that extension personnel should motivate and educate the farming community about the use of electronic media (TV, radio, helpline, internet, mobile) for advanced information about agriculture production techniques.

Notes:
"In the recently published first volume of his memoirs, Living to Tell the Tale, Gabriel García Márquez makes it clear right from the beginning that his autobiography won't just be about what really happened. His memory of events is in various places irreconcilable with "the facts." It is an old magical realist's dream of the past, not an attempt at historical recovery. Memories of My Melancholy Whores is a short novel, a novella really, written in much the same spirit."

Notes:
"You wouldn't expect the autobiography of Nobel Prize-winner Gabriel García Márquez to be just another life story. After all, this is the fellow who made magic realism into a literary brand. You know he has tricks up his sleeve... This isn't going to be just the facts. Living to Tell the Tale is a life reconstructed in the imagination." -Good

Abstract online via Ebscohost., Authors analyze 490 television news broadcasts featuring Brattany's "green algae" between 1986 and 2015. "The problem has evolved over the past thirty years. It was first depicted as a hindrance to tourism due to urban pollution. It then was classified as an ecological disaster caused by agricultural productivism. Finally, it is currently considered a possible launch pad for sustainable development projects at the territorial level. The media have shaken up the region's political agenda and in so doing, they have hastened the reassessment of the 'Breton agricultural model'."

Grohmann mentions García Márquez's comment, written in his autobiography Vivir para contarla, that newspaper editorials are more a form of literature than of journalism.
