He also states that "Plascencia acknowledges García Márquez as a major influence in his writing, but "The People of Paper" strays from being the "One Hundred Years of Solitude" for turn-of-this-century Southern California when it ventures into the world of Federico's enemy, sadness." | | | URL | | | |
