I live to tell my life

In his extraordinary autobiographical novel, he tells the story of Gabriel García Márquez’s growth and becoming a writer. What family stories did he inherit from his parents, how was the sensitive little boy raised by his grandparents, what among ten siblings to become an adult? How did the love and co-workers shape García Márquez’s life, how did journalism influence the author’s work of fiction? The special feature of the book is that it maps the background of the world-famous writer's works and provides an insight into the novel history of the works themselves. The CV can be read in the excellent translation by Vera Székács.
