While his previous fictional works were much flavored by Colombian culture, The General in His Labyrinth is the first to draw directly from the tortured and labyrinthine history of the region. The novel tells the story of the final journey of General Simón Bolívar, known as "The Liberator" in many South American countries."

"Some of the most interesting and never realized proposals of literary historiography in the last fifty years gain validity when they propose to assume the history of literature as provocation, where they establish a real dialogue of periods, where they revise, question and destroy the traditional canons. This means realizing new cuts, selections, and proposals to approach Colombian literature from a historical proposal that relies on a fruitful discussion by the academic community." Pöpel analyzes the transition of magical realism from its beginnings by García Márquez, as a Colombian novel of violence to its transitions in the latter part of the century as a narrative of drug trafficking and new violence.

"The Violence (1946-1965) was the first arena of generalized violence in Colombia this century. This phenomenon left the terrifying memory of its more than two hundred thousand deaths, together with a country ruined politically and morally. The writers (novels and consecrates) left evidence of this in an enormous body of work that has been, in large part, negatively sanctioned and, in general, poorly researched. To construct a dispassionate critical judgment and a rigorous study of this literature it is necessary, in principal, to outline some criteria that will permit a clear delineation of the corpus of novels that integrate it."||To sustain his argument, Osorio brings up García Márquez's statement, "La literatura colombiana, un fraude a la nación" where he states that since colonial times, the Colombian literature has had at most three or four literary writers and has been encumbered with false prestige. Furthermore, he states that during the 50s no literary tradition or national literature existed; however, since the 50s there has been a surge in literary novels about the violence, among them, García Márquez's, Mejía Vallejo's, and Álvarez Gardeazábal's.
