Gabriel Garcia Marquez: The Last Interview

"A conjurer of literary magic" --The New York Times Nobel Prize-winning author Gabriel García Márquez was one of the most widely translated and beloved writers of his time, and yet, as this revelatory book shows, there were many sides of him that English-language readers do not know. This volume includes the first-ever English translation of García Márquez's final conversation with Spanish journalist Xavi Ayén, along with other rare and never-before-translated interviews from throughout his long career. García Márquez discusses his extraordinarily varied literary work and his often controversial politics, and what emerges is a richer, deeper, more intimate portrait of this great writer than we've encountered before.
