My favorite icon of writing and novels is and always will be Gabriel

Garcia marques our writer who was born in Aracataca Magdalena
(march 6, 1927) recognized for his novels and his works he was the
first Colombian writer to win a Nobel his artistic nickname ( GABO) "for
his novels and short stories, in which the fantastic and the real are
combined in a world richly composed of imagination, reflecting the life
and conflicts of a continent." he worldwide notoriety of García Márquez
began when One Hundred Years of Solitude was published in June
1967 and sold 8,000 copies in one week. From then on, success was
assured and the novel sold a new edition every week, going on to sell
half a million copies in three years. It was translated into more than
twenty-five languages and won six international awards. Success had
finally arrived and the writer was 40 years old when the world learned
his name. From the fan correspondence, awards, interviews and
appearances it was obvious that his life had changed. In 1969, the
novel won the Chianciano Appreciate in Italy and was named the "Best
Foreign Book" in France.

In 1970, it was published in English and was chosen as one of the 12

best books of the year in the United States. Two years later he was
awarded the Romulo Gallegos Prize and the Neustadt Prize and in
1971, Mario Vargas Llosa published a book about his life and work,
entitled García Márquez: history of a deicide. To contradict all this
display, García Márquez simply returned to writing. Determined to write
about a dictator, he moved with his family to Barcelona (Spain)
spending his last years under the regime of Francisco Franco.

13 The popularity of his writing also led to friendships with powerful

leaders, including former Cuban President Fidel Castro, a friendship
that has been analyzed in Gabo and Fidel: Portrait of a Friendship.20
In an interview with Claudia Dreyfus in 1982, he says that his the
relationship with Castro is fundamentally based on literature: «Ours is
an intellectual friendship. It may not be widely known that Fidel is a
cultured man. When we're together, we talk a lot about literature."
