كتب الأستاذ العقاد مقالا في مناسبة عبوره سن الخمسين بأمان، ووتبعه بآخر عندما تجاوز الستين، وتبعه آخر عند السبعين بعد أن قطع سلالم الستين العشرة ومر على الرقم السبعيني بعنفوان الشيخوخة، وأوقفه الموت قبل أن يتيح له كتابه مقاله لتهنئة نفسه بعبوره عامه الثمانين، فكان العقاد إذن رجلًا سبعينًا، رحمه ال...
Instead of writing a review by jotting down my bleak understanding of the glorious book by Gabo I thought of weaving a little tale based on it and using the characters along with the principle symbolism in the book-'Disbelief is more resistant than faith because it is sustained by the senses' As ...
Gabriel Garcia Marquez é para mim um escritor esquisito, não só ao nível da composição dos seus textos, como sobretudo devido à estranheza das suas histórias.Prémio Nobel em 1982, Garcia Marquez assentou toda a sua carreira, enquanto escritor, num género que podemos classificar, ou pelo menos eu ...
شبه مراجعة كانت هذه نوت كتبتها على بروفايلي الشخصي على الفيسبوك في يوم الإثنين 29 نوفمبر 2010 وأعتقد ان هذا التاريخ كان قريبا جدا من آخر انتخابات برلمانية في عهد مبارك ... ربما كان الجودريدز قد ظهر على الإنترنت وأنا لم أعلم به وربما لم يكن قد ظهر بعد... لم تكن تلك مراجعة بقدر ما كانت صرخة في صدر...

“Noticia De Un Secuestro” by Gabriel Garcia Marquez was a novel based upon a woman who was kidnapped in Bogota, Colombia. I have a deep passion for books that deal with crime and drug cartels. I strongly belief more authors should focus on writing books that relate to the modern world. I was hook...
Sono felice di aver letto questo racconto in una vecchia edizione, con le pagine ingiallite dall'umidità di quasi quattro decenni. L'impressione regalata da questo libro è quella piacevolissima, e ormai rara, dei romanzi d'avventura di un tempo: racconta l'esperienza realmente vissuta nel febbrai...
I have read some of this book as a Penguin 60, in which four of these were re-published.Like that review, I have stuck it is a spoiler, as with stories so short it is hard not to give plot information... but no more than other reviews have... and I don't think I have spoiled them...As it explains...
I always feel a twinge of pity when someone tells me, “I don’t read for pleasure any more” or “I only read non-fiction.” Most of the pity is sympathy for the fact that, in today’s busy world, we just don’t have the time. Whenever someone expresses awe at the number of books I read in a year and a...
I am again impressed by the writing techniques of Gabriel Garcia Marques, even though I don't necessary like his stories that don't focus too much on the narrative flow. These kind of books, flow of consciousness type with some magical realism, for me were interesting the first time I come across...
Another collection of short stories, and Marquez excels in the format. In this book, the first short story - the one about Erendira of the title - is about half the book, and the other eleven stories are much shorter. The majority of the stories are about death, actually, whether it's encroaching...
There isn’t really much left to say about Senor Marquez. He is the supreme storyteller, the master of transforming the most simple and spare prose into something so magically vivid and colourful. Latin America grows in mystique every time I read him, and it’s a life goal for me to discover the co...

Truth be told, I've never read Marquez before, not 100 Years of Solitude, not Love in the Time of Cholera, nothing. I've always wanted to, of course, because anyone who reads always has a pile of books and authors they will read one day, however, Marquez has always slipped out of my reach for som...
