García Márquez: A Witch Writing - First 11 minutes

This is an excellent documentary of the life, times, thoughts and writings of Colombian-born Gabriel García Márquez, one of the twentieth century's most notable authors who is most well known for his Nobel prize winning novel, One Hundred Years of Solitude. García Márquez tells us in his own words, without interruption from an interviewer, about his early life in civil-war torn Colombia; his fascinating forays into other creative endeavors, including his law school student days, employment as a journalist (he later founded a journalism school/movement in Cuba); his work in the political arena; and his less well-known work as a screenwriter and filmmaker. He is at his best when ruminating about the unique and important roles and functions of writers in society, particularly in Latin American dictatorships.

¡Gabriel García Márquez fue un talentoso escritor! Me pregunto yo mismo , ¿que inspiraba Márquez en escribir el libro cien años de soledad?

"who is most well known for his Nobel prize winning novel, One Hundred Years of Solitude." Nobel Prizes for Literature aren't given to authors for individual books. The author has to have a great career to win one.

[@michaelstroud8547]

Well he definitely had the career to deserve it. Probably the most important writer in Latin American literature with a lot of other classics aside from 100 years. Chronicle of a Death Foretold, Of Love and Other Demons, Love in the Times of Cholera, Autumn of the Patriarch just to name a few.

[@xolilekhumalo1615]

I have searched for the last 12 or so years after reading a number of hos books, I still cannot find this quote. It might be due to variations in the English translations of his books.
