| | | Publisher | | Associated Press | | | Publication place | | New York, NY | | | Publication year | | January 12, 2006 | | | Page | | International News | | | Volume | | | | | Issue | | | | | Notes | | "Now Macondo and the author's birthplace near Colombia's Caribbean coast may become forever joined. To reverse a half-century of economic decline, town leaders hope to cash in on their favorite son's international fame by changing the town's name to "Aracataca-Macondo." "We want to exploit García Márquez's legacy in the best sense of the word," said Mayor Pedro Sanchez, 37, who proposed a March referendum on whether to change the name." | | | URL | | | |

| | | Title | | "All the Wrong Places; Paradise Travel, A Novel Jorge Franco," Los Angeles Times
| | | Publisher | | Los Angeles Times | | | Publication place | | Los Angeles, CA | | | Publication year | | January 22, 2006 | | | Page | | Book Review; Features Desk; Part R; 2 | | | Volume | | | | | Issue | | | | | Notes | | In reviewing Jorge Franco's new book, Abani states that "Jorge Franco is a founding member of the self-anointed McOndo School of writers from South and Central America, who opt for harder, grittier urban reality than their magical realist forebears, such as Jorge Amado and Gabriel García Marquez. (The name McOndo itself is a play on Macondo, García Márquez's own Yoknapatawpha County.) But even thought the Characters in Franco's books fly in airplanes rather than through the air by magic, the social placements of these literary movements remain close." | | | URL | | | |
