| | | Title | | "García Márquez Lives to Tell a Tall Tale: A Portrait of the Bullshit Artist as a Young Man. Gabo Talks," The Village Voice
| | | Publisher | | The Village Voice | | | Publication place | | New York, NY | | | Publication year | | November, 2003 | | | Page | | | | | Volume | | | | | Issue | | | | | Notes | | Viewed on 28 January, 2008.||"Gabriel García Márquez-philes will instantly recognize it as the mythical Macondo of García Márquez's fiction. In Living to Tell the Tale, he describes Aracataca by citing One Hundred Years of Solitude's opening-paragraph depiction of Macondo. Linearly put, Tale traces the author's life to age 28, shortly after he completed his first novel, Leaf storm (1955; translation, 1979). It also retells his saga of the Gabriel García Márquez clan, now stripped of the magic-realist filigrees of Solitude (1970). García Márquez name-checks all his novels and catalogs the real-life events and persons that inspired their fictional counterparts. More importantly, the book lets us peek behind the curtain to see the wizard at work. It's a master class in the art of writing, as well as the art of living a writer's life, which isn't always the same thing." | | | URL | | http://www.villagevoice.com/books/0346,morales,48543,10.html | |

| | | Title | | "García Márquez recounts his early life," The Gazette
| | | Publisher | | CanWest Interactive | | | Publication place | | Montreal, Quebec, Canada | | | Publication year | | November, 2003 | | | Page | | H1 | | | Volume | | | | | Issue | | | | | Notes | | "One Hundred Years of Solitude is so ingrained in world culture that it has assumed the feel of an epic folktale- it's strange to think there was a time, not so long ago, when it wasn't around. Love in the Time of Cholera, Autumn of the Patriarch, and others aren't far behind. So it's cause for rejoicing that Gabriel García Márquez has chosen, while still clearly at the height of his powers, to embark on his autobiography, of which this book is the first in a projected trilogy. Readers will relish the chance to sift the Colombian author's life for the seeds of his magic realism, and the master doesn't disappoint." | | | URL | | | |

Previously, Knopf lost thousands of sales for the author's autobiography because illegally imported foreign editions were readily available to his fans in the U.S. To avoid that mistake, the house joined forces with [Gabriel García] Márquez's agent, Carmen Balcells, and the book's other Spanish-language publishers for what was originally a worldwide release on October 27." | | | URL | | | |

The aged love of Fermina Daza and Florentino Ariza impresses with the wisdom and patience of age. Long sections of the book are devoted to Juvenal Urbino, including his ethical struggle over his desire for his patient, his horror at the medical conditions of his country after studying abroad, and his negotiations with Fermina Daza, who expects him to be a husband as well as a doctor." | | | URL | | http://litmed.med.nyu.edu/Annotation?action=view&annid=302 | |

Mexican president Vicente Fox made an appearance on December 3 and all the crème de la crème of Spanish-language letters were available for close-ups. Gabriel García Márquez, still riding high from the remarkable international sales of his latest novella, Memoria de mis putas tristes (Memories of My Melancholy Whores), was spotted hitting the dance floor of the popular casino Veracruz with fellow Mexican Boom writer Carlos Fuentes." | | | URL | | | |
