Vivir para contarla is the extraordinary story of Gabriel Garcia Marquezs early life. It is a recreation of his formative years, from his birth in Colombia in 1927, through his evocative childhood to the time he became a journalist. The Nobel laureate offers us the memory of his childhood and adolescence, the years that shaped his creative imagination, and, with time, would become the basis of the fiction that makes up much of twentiethcentury literature in Spanish and indeed the world.In these pages Garcia Marquez reveals the echoes of peoples and stories that we meet in One Hundred Years of Solitude, Love in the Time of Cholera, No One Writes to the Colonel, and Chronicle of a Death Foretold. Vivir para contarla is a guide to readers of his entire work, an indispensable companion to many unforgettable passages which, with the reading of this memoir acquire a new perspective.The description from the book:Vivir para contarla es, probablemente, el libro ms esperado de la dcada, compendio y recreacin de un tiempo crucial en la vida de Gabriel Garca Mrquez.
