Editor, Harold Bloom cites the literary origins of Gabriel Garcia Marquez as
Faulkner, crossed by Kafka.
A Colombian writer and Nobel Prize winner, Marquez is best known for his novels
One Hundred Years of Solitude
and
Love in the Time of Cholera . In an all-new, updated edition, Bloom’s
Modern Critical Views
presents a balanced portrait of the author and journalist through an examination of his work.
