Una Aromatica Conversacion
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Algo asi como una platica escrita entre Garcia Marquez y Plinio Apuleyo, sin faltar el colorido lenguaje y el ambiente confortante que se crea solo al tocar un libro de el Si eres seguidor de el pues es muy recomndable leerlo ya que como buen inventa cuentos de una historia sale la otra y nos hace participe de ello!
The voice of the novelist
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Get to know "Gabo" through his own words as he converses with his old friend Plinio. I found "El Olor de la Guayaba" beneficial in helping me understand the author's view of his own books, including the popular and Nobel Prize-winning "Cien Años de Soledad"/"One Hundred Years of Solitude." García Márquez explains how this novel is thoroughly based in Caribbean reality, not "magic." In addition, "El Olor de la Guayaba" provides valuable and interesting biographical and personal information, plus some great photos. García Márquez is a brilliant, witty, and humanistic soul, and this little book fully shows off his character.
