À la fin du XIXe siècle, dans une petite ville des Caraïbes, un jeune télégraphiste pauvre et une ravissante écolière jurent de se marier et se promettent un amour éternel. Durant trois ans ils vivent l’un pour l’autre, mais Fermina épouse Juvenal Urbino, un brillant médecin. Alors Florentino, l’amoureux trahi, se mue en séducteur impénitent et s’efforce de se faire un nom et une fortune pour mériter celle qu’il ne cessera d’aimer, en secret, cinquante années durant.

Ce jeune homme qui rentre à l’issue d’une nuit blanche passée avec les derniers fêtards d’un mariage ignore, en regagnant sa demeure, que le destin l’attend et qu’il mourra poignardé. Pourtant tout le monde le sait et Santiago Nasar, livré à ses bourreaux avec l’assentiment collectif, sera la victime de ce crime d’honneur. Qu’il soit ou non coupable, il n’échappera pas à cette mort annoncée. Car la mariée n’était plus vierge.

The ruined town of Comala is alive with whispers and shadows. Time shifts from one consciousness to another in a hypnotic flow of desires and memories, a world of ghosts dominated by the tyranny of the Páramo family. Womaniser, overlord and murderer, Juan's notorious father retains an eternal grip over Comala. Its barren and broken-down streets echo the voices of tormented spirits sharing the secrets of the past in an extraordinary chorus of sensory images, violent passions and unfathomable mysteries.

Nobelprisvinderen Gabriel García Márquez hylder fortællingen om den store og altfortærende kærlighed, men fremviser stadig den trussel, som tiden og hverdagen udgør mod den. "Kærlighed i koleraens tid" (1985) er historien om en kærlighed, der kunne vente 53 år, 7 måneder og 11 dage. Så langt tilbage ligger koleraens tid, hvor Florentino begyndte at elske Fermina, der dog giftede sig med en anden. Men han dør... endelig.

"100 års ensomhed" er den fabulerende farverige og fantastiske krønike om den ensomt beliggende landsby Macondo og dens store Buendia-slægt med dens mangfoldige skæbner. Det er ægteparret José og Ursula Buendia, fætter og kusine, som engang i 1800-tallets begyndelse grundlægger flækken. Márquez befolker den med en broget skare af lidenskabelige kvinder, eventyrlystne mænd, pjaltede sigøjnere og hvileløse ånder.

Mit seinem Roman "Hundert Jahre Einsamkeit" gelang Gabriel García Márquez 1967 der Durchbruch als Schriftsteller. Dieser moderne Klassiker der Weltliteratur erzählt die Geschichte vom Aufstieg und Niedergang der Familie Buendía und des von ihr gegründeten Dorfes Macondo, das zunächst wie das Paradies erscheint. Abgeschnitten vom Rest der Welt durch Sümpfe, Urwald und eine undurchdringliche Sierra, ist es der Ort, an dem sich alle Träume, Alpträume und Entdeckungen des Menschen noch einmal zu wiederholen scheinen.

In 1955, García Márquez was working for El Espectador, a newspaper in Bogota, when in February of that year eight crew members of the Caldas, a Colombian destroyer, were washed overboard and disappeared. Ten days later one of them turned up, barely alive, on a deserted beach in northern Colombia. This book, which originally appeared as a series of newspaper articles, is García Márquez’s account of that sailor’s ordeal. 

Leaf Storm is the first book García Márquez wrote. Already we see the colorful historical background that forms the basis for his later work. It covers the history of Macondo from 1903 to 1928, ending the year the author was born. A man dies, and three people reflect on the story of Macondo’s boom and decline as shown in the family fortunes over three generations. As they attend the wake, the members of the family recall the tragedy that involves them all.

A man returns to the town where a baffling murder took place 27 years earlier, determined to get to the bottom of the story. Just hours after marrying the beautiful Angela Vicario, everyone agrees, Bayardo San Roman returned his bride in disgrace to her parents. Her distraught family forced her to name her first lover; and her twin brothers announced their intention to murder Santiago Nasar for dishonoring their sister. Yet if everyone knew the murder was going to happen, why did no one intervene to stop it?

“I don’t want to be remembered for One Hundred Years of Solitude or for the Nobel Prize, but rather for my journalism,” Gabriel García Márquez said in the final years of his life. And while some of his journalistic writings have been made available over the years, this is the first volume to gather a representative selection from across the first four decades of his career - years during which he worked as a full-time, often muckraking, and controversial journalist, even as he penned the fiction that would bring him the Nobel Prize in 1982.

On her 12th birthday, Sierva Maria - the only child of a decaying noble family in an 18th-century South American seaport - is bitten by a rabid dog. Believed to be possessed, she is brought to a convent for observation. And into her cell stumbles Father Cayetano Delaura, who has already dreamed about a girl with hair trailing after her like a bridal train. As he tends to her with holy water and sacramental oils, Delaura feels something shocking begin to occur.

Throughout his life, Gabriel García Márquez spoke publicly with the same passion and energy that marked his writing. Now the wisdom and compassion of these performances are available in English for the first time. I’m Not Here to Give a Speech records key events throughout the author’s life, from a farewell to his classmates delivered when he was only 17 to his Nobel Prize acceptance speech.
