| | | Title | | "Gabriel Blows his Horn," The Australian
| | | Publisher | | The Australian | | | Publication place | | Sydney, Australia | | | Publication year | | January 31, 2004 | | | Page | | B12 Review | | | Volume | | | | | Issue | | | | | Notes | | "The life of Gabriel García Márquez, the magical realist whose much-loved fifth novel, One Hundred Years of Solitude, helped him secure the 1982 Nobel Prize for Literature, has already been assembled in fragments. Lacking from a book such as The Fragrance of Guava, an extended interview published in the year of the Nobel, is the whimsical grace of the fiction. Márquez's own account of his early years, Living to Tell the Tale, is first and foremost a storyteller's story, a languid spell cast by a master of language." | | | URL | | | |

It covers just the first third of his life, but the now 76-year-old García Márquez has promised two more volumes of memoirs. For our sake, may he live to tell those tales as well." | | | URL | | | |

| | | Title | | "Gabriel García Márquez. The Face of Nostalgia", The Economist
| | | Publisher | | The Economist | | | Publication place | | | | | Publication year | | February, 2003 | | | Page | | 76 | | | Volume | | 366 | | | Issue | | 8311 | | | Notes | | "As Mr. García Márquez observes in the opening pages of Vivir para contarla (Living to Tell It), the memoir of his life to early manhood, "until adolescence, the memory is more interested in the future than the past, so my memories of the town were not yet idealized by nostalgia." The first volume of his memoirs has been eagerly awaited; now here, it is lording it over the Spanish-speaking world's bestsellers lists, including that for the Hispanic market in the United States. Mr. García Márquez's fans will not be disappointed. Once again, he mines the rich seam of his memories of Colombia's Caribbean coast from the 1920s to the 1950s which provide the material for his novels." | | | URL | | | |

| | | Title | | "Gaming the System; Turings Delirium; A Novel by Edmundo Paz Soldan Translated by Lisa Carter Houghton," Los Angeles Times
| | | Publisher | | Times Mirror Co | | | Publication place | | Los Angeles, CA | | | Publication year | | August 27, 2006 | | | Page | | Book Review; Features; Part R; Pg 6 | | | Volume | | | | | Issue | | | | | Notes | | The author starts his discussion of the book by stating, "Like a lot of American readers, I have come to equate Latin American fiction with magical realism, that style of playful and exotic world-bending most closely associated with Gabriel García Márquez." He later states about the author, “Soldan is one of a number of Latin American writers associated with the McOndo literary movement. Rejecting magical realism, which some of these writers see as an exotic and politically correct export aimed for a Euro-American market, the McOndo writers instead embrace gritty urban realism -- a style fit to explore their concerns with money, power and pleasure in a globalized, technological world. In the place of Macondo -- the fabulous village that Marquez evoked in 'One Hundred Years of Solitude' -- these writers look through their windows (and computer screens) and see a world of McDonald's restaurants, iMacs and condos." | | | URL | | | |
