Overview

La primera biografía completa y autorizada sobre el más querido y admirado escritor latinoamericano

Gerald Martin dedicó más de dos décadas a investigar y escribir esta magistral biografía. Pasó horas con Gabriel García Márquez y entrevistó a más de trescientas personas, incluyendo a la madre, mujer, hijos y familiares del autor, además de a famosos escritores y políticos como Carlos Fuentes, Mario Vargas Llosa y Fidel Castro. El resultado revela tanto al escritor como al hombre.

Nacido en 1927 y educado por sus abuelos en una pequeña aldea colombiana, el tímido e inteligente muchacho se convirtió en un hombre reservado, un periodista que encontró la fama como novelista, a los cuarenta años, tras publicar Cien años de soledad, la novela que dio lugar al Realismo Mágico y obra cumbre de la literatura latinoamericana del siglo XX. Pero a pesar de su fama, nunca perdió el contacto con sus raíces; aunque vivió lejos de Colombia desde 1955, la concesión del Premio Nobel fue celebrada por todos los latinoamericanos que, entonces como ahora, consideran a “Gabo” como uno de los suyos.

Al contar la apasionante historia de su compleja vida, Martin balancea las tensiones entre pobreza y riqueza, popularidad y calidad literaria, política y literatura, y entre poder, soledad y amor. Gerald Martin ha escrito una biografía magnífica: enriquecedora, iluminadora, tan apasionante como el más agudo periodismo de García Márquez y tan fascinante como la mejor de sus novelas.
