Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Gabriel José García Márquez (Aracataca, Colombia, March 6, 1927 - Ciudad de México, Mexico, April 17, 2014) is a Colombian writer, journalist, publisher and political activist. He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1982. His first successful book was "The Colonel has no one to write to", published in 1961, followed by "Great Mom's Funeral" a year later.
For his most famous book, "One Hundred Years of Solitude", he told how a kind of revelation happened to him while he was approaching Acapulco, and he didn't know why, but he knew that he had to write that book. The experience was so complete that he was able to dictate the first chapter word for word. He returned to romantic themes in 1986 with the book "Love in the Time of Cholera", a strong, poetic and comic story about long-term love, which also describes the story of his parents' love. "The General in the Labyrinth", "12 Pilgrims" (a collection of short stories), "Love and other demons" followed.
