Living to Tell the Tale

In this long-awaited firdt volume of a planed trilogy, the most acclaimed and revered living Nobel laureate begins to tell us the story of his life.

Like all his work, Living to Tell the Tale is a magnificent piece of writing. It spans Gabriel Garcia Marquez's life fron his brith in 1927 throught the start of his career as a writer to the moment in the 1950's when he proposed to the woman who would become his wife. It has the shape, the quality, and the vividness of a conversation vith the reader-a tale of people, places, and events as they occur to him: the colorful stories of the his eccentric family members; the great infulence of his mother and maetrnal granfather; his consuming career in journalism, and the friens and mentors who encouraged him; the myths an mysteries, of his beloved Colombia; personal detalis, undisclosed until now, that would apper later, transmuted and transposed, in his fiction; and, above all, his fervent desire to become a writer. And, as in his fiction, the narrator here is an inspired observer of the physical worl, able to make clear the emotions and pasions that lie at the heart of a life-in this instance, his own.
