Books by Gabriel García Márquez

Gabriel García Márquez (1927–2014) was a Colombian novelist, journalist, and Nobel laureate whose work defined magical realism as a global literary mode. Love in the Time of Cholera, published in 1985, was his first major novel after One Hundred Years of Solitude and drew on his parents' courtship for its emotional core. His other major works include Chronicle of a Death Foretold, The Autumn of the Patriarch, No One Writes to the Colonel, and his memoir Living to Tell the Tale. He spent much of his life in Mexico City and Barcelona and was a close friend of Fidel Castro.
