When British foreign correspondent Richard McColl purchased, on a whim, a ruined colonial building in the rural Colombian town of Mompós, he imagined a lifestyle of relaxation, with idle afternoons reading the works of Gabriel García Márquez, writing glib observations and enjoying the hypnotic momentum of a Caribbean tropical narrative, swaying in a hammock and the promise of an ice cold beer never far away. He was mistaken. His first restoration yields a hostel, which later becomes a hotel and then spirals into further projects including the restoration of three more colonial houses, experiencing challenges that make him reconsider his upbringing, education and outlook on how he fits into his adopted homeland. With two hotels in Mompós, he experiences the joy of new friendships and a despair over the predictability of guests. With a journalist's eye for a story, McColl navigates the history of Mompós and how its society is a microcosm of today's Colombia, with its feudal system still very much in place, inherent prejudices, stigma surrounding the politics, the people and the past, all coming to the fore.

Cien años de soledad de Gabriel García Márquez
This is one of my favorite episodes of the show in recent memory. It's a conversation with the author Salman Rushdie about the experience of losing control of your identity in the world. This happened to Rushdie in the most extreme way. But many of us know some milder version of this — and increasingly so in the age of social media. Rushdie's story is hard to wrap your mind around. When he published his fourth novel, “The Satanic Verses,” in 1988, he was a literary star. And then the Ayatollah of Iran issued a fatwa calling for his assassination. In this episode, Rushdie recounts the ways that upended his world, creating a “shadow self” that he would spend years trying to escape. And he reflects on the different ways he's wrestled with that shadow self — in the years following the fatwa and then more recently, after a 2022 knife attack that nearly killed him.This episode was originally recorded in April 2024.

Gabriel José García Márquez (1927–2014) fue un escritor, periodista y guionista colombiano, considerado uno de los más grandes autores del siglo XX. Es especialmente conocido por ser uno de los principales exponentes del realismo mágico, un estilo literario que mezcla elementos fantásticos con la realidad cotidiana de América Latina.

Este episodio especial nace de una invitación de Alpina para conmemorar sus 80 años de historia. Y como toda buena historia, nos lleva a viajar por el tiempo. Vamos a hacer un recorrido por algunos de los hechos más importantes que han ocurrido en los últimos 80 años en Colombia y el mundo. Desde su creación en el valle de Sopó, Alpina ha crecido junto con grandes cambios que han pasado en la historia de la humanidad: desde el final de la Segunda Guerra Mundial hasta la era digital, pasando por hitos como el alunizaje, la caída del Muro de Berlín, el Nobel de García Márquez y la Constitución del 91.

La Tertulia de los Viernes con Alejandro Abal, Víctor Ganon, Juan Grompone y Carolina Porley. *** ¿Qué ocurre cuando un libro es llevado al cine o a una serie de televisión? La narrativa original, escrita, con su estilo propio, su ritmo y su profundidad introspectiva, salta a un lenguaje audiovisual que tiene sus propias reglas y limitaciones. Por ejemplo: cuando Netflix anunció una serie a partir de la novela Cien años de soledad, de Gabriel García Márquez, muchos lectores sintieron una mezcla de entusiasmo y temor. ¿Cómo sería el traslado a la pantalla de un texto tan cargado de simbolismo, tiempo circular y realismo mágico? En el público de estas adaptaciones hay dos grandes grupos: quienes leyeron el libro y quienes no. Para los primeros, el nuevo producto puede confirmar o traicionar su visión personal de la obra. Y en el caso de los que no conocían el libro, algunos optarán por quedarse con esa historia que acaban de ver y otros sentirán la curiosidad de ir en busca de la fuente original para bucear en otras complejidades.
Hoy hablaremos del Realismo Mágico, ese género literario que hizo que Latinoamérica brillara en el mapa de la literatura mundial. Seguramente ya has escuchado este término. Tal vez has leído algo de Gabriel García Márquez o has oído sobre Cien años de soledad. Independientemente si lo leíste o no sabes realmente ¿qué es el realismo mágico? ¿Por qué se asocia a América Latina? ¿Y por qué es tan popular, incluso, fuera del mundo hispano?

Heute erscheint ein Roman über die Freundschaft und Feindschaft zweier Schriftsteller. Gabriel García Márquez und Mario Vargas Llosa lebten in Barcelona sogar als Nachbarn nebeneinander. Doch dann zerstritten sie sich. Jaime Bayly erzählt in seinem Roman "Die Genies" wahre wie erdachte Begebenheiten und landete damit in Spanien einen Bestseller. Wie sich das auf deutsch liest, berichtet Katharina Döbler.
In this episode of Filmmaker Mixer, we sit down with La Tina—the acclaimed Colombian sound collective made up of Andrés Silva Díaz, Alejandro Uribe-Holguín, and Manuel José Gordillo. Together, they form the sonic force behind Netflix's ambitious adaptation of One Hundred Years of Solitude, based on the novel by Gabriel García Márquez. We explore their creative process, the cultural and technical challenges of bringing the world of Macondo to life through sound, and how their work pays tribute to the magical realism of Márquez's masterpiece. From atmospheric design to emotional texture, this is an immersive conversation about sound as storytelling.

In memoriam. En el año 2010 cuando recibió el Premio Nobel de Literatura, Mario Vargas Llosa, revivía el hecho que marcó su vida: haber aprendido a leer a los cinco años le despertó su pasión por convertirse en un escritor. Y fue precisamente para que se olvidara de esa fijación que su papá lo internó en una academia militar en Lima a los 14 años, donde lejos de apartarse de su vocación, la reforzó aún más dedicándose a la tarea de escribir las cartas de amor a las novias de sus compañeros. Con todo, tuvo que complacer al progenitor estudiando derecho. Luego cruzó el Atlántico para hacer realidad su sueño. Mientras daba clases de Literatura Española en la Universidad de Londres, la afamada editora Carmen Balcells, lo convenció de mudarse a Barcelona a vivir como escritor de tiempo completo; así llegó al puerto catalán ya con cuatro novelas escritas: La ciudad y los perros (1962), La Casa Verde (1965), Los cachorros (1967) y Conversación en La Catedral (1969). Y es gracias en gran medida a esa decisión que Vargas Llosa dejó como legado 20 novelas, un libro de cuentos, 10 obras de teatro, 14 libros de ensayo, dos de crónicas y uno de memorias. Una vida dedicada, con pasión, con rigurosidad y con estudio a las letras, aunque tuvo tiempo también para otra fuerte inclinación suya que fue la política. Incluso fue candidato presidencial en 1990 y perdió la carrera frente a Alberto Fujimori. Los estudiosos de su obra indican que leer a Mario Vargas Llosa es leer a Perú y a América Latina, con su historia, su política y sus problemas estructurales, pero también leer sus amores y sus experiencias más íntimas, con comicidad y con sátira. Reconoció que en Gustave Flaubert se encontró como escritor y adoptó la metodología que implica la precisión y la perfección de buscar la palabra más adecuada. Junto con Gabriel García Márquez, Julio Cortázar, Carlos Fuentes y Alejo Carpentier conformó el “boom latinoamericano”, que internacionalizó nuestra literatura. Mario Vargas Llosa, fallecido el recién pasado 13 de abril a sus 89 años, representa, por tanto, el fin de una generación excepcional. Para repasar su vida y su obra conversaremos con el escritor Carlos Cortés.
Mado Martínez nos cuenta que ha estado recientemente junto a familiares de Gabo, J.J Benítez y un periodista colombiano que ha investigado las experiencias extrañas que tuvo G.G.M, experiencias que todos confirman como ciertas. Además en la Tertulia Juanjo Sánchez-Oro comenta cómo un cerebro artificial crea música y Josep Guijarro habla de los poblados amazónicos que supuestamente son atacados por ovnis. También el caso de Antonio Gaudi nombrado "venerable" el primer paso para el camino a la santidad. El plan para terraformar Marte. Los mensajes secretos descifrados del obelisco egipcio de Paris o lo último detectado por el telescopio James Weeb. La muerte del Papa Francisco y su posible sucesión también suscita cierto debate.
El escritor colombiano Héctor Abad Faciolince, recordó con nostalgia curiosas anécdotas de los dos últimos grandes escritores de América Latina, Mario Vargas Llosa y Gabriel García Márquez.
Mario Vargas Llosa ha fallecido este domingo en Lima, a los 89 años. Con él se despide el último gran nombre de la edad de oro de la narrativa latinoamericana. Con 'La ciudad y los perros' abrió un camino nuevo para la literatura en español, iniciando el icónico Boom junto a Gabriel García Márquez y Julio Cortázar. Una corriente que, como recuerda Rosa Montero, trajo una narrativa moderna, original y ambiciosa a nuestra lengua.Le rendimos homenaje con un programa monográfico que repasa su producción —'La casa verde', 'Conversación en La Catedral', 'La tía Julia y el escribidor', 'La fiesta del Chivo', 'Travesuras de la niña mala', 'El héroe discreto' o 'Le dedico mi silencio'— y recoge los testimonios de quienes lo conocieron o estudiaron su obra: Juan Cruz, Irene Vallejo, Pola Oloixarac y Jaime Bayly, que profundiza en su perfil más mediático y controvertido. También Sergio Ramírez y Carmen Riera. Ana Gil recupera su trayectoria como periodista: empezó en La Crónica a los 15 años y escribió en medios de todo el mundo. Fue entrevistador, redactor y columnista. Durante tres décadas firmó la columna Piedra de Toque en El País, ahora reunida en tres volúmenes publicados por Alfaguara.Abrimos también la Pequeteca para recordarlo desde su dimensión más temprana y hablar de la lectura en la infancia. Desde París informa Antonio Delgado sobre el vínculo decisivo de Vargas Llosa con la capital francesa, donde fue reconocido por la Academia y considerado uno de los suyos.Conversamos con el escritor y periodista Renato Cisneros, finalista del Premio Bienal de Novela Mario Vargas Llosa, y con Fernando Iwasaki, autor del ensayo 'Mario Vargas Llosa, entre la libertad y el infierno'.Y evocamos su presencia en el teatro con 'Los cuentos de la peste', estrenada en 2015 con Pedro Casablanc y Marta Poveda, y 'La fiesta del chivo', que llegó en 2019 con Juan Echanove, a quien también recibimos esta tarde.Escuchar audio
La admiración entre Mario Vargas Llosa y Gabriel García Márquez era grandísima, en parte porque desarrollaron una prosa extraordinaria, pero también porque cada uno construyó su propia personalidad como escritor.

Jess Kidd was brought up in London as part of a large family from county Mayo and has been praised for her unique fictional voice. Her debut, Himself, was shortlisted for the Irish Book Awards in 2016. She won the Costa Short Story Award the same year. Her second novel, The Hoarder (published as Mr. Flood's Last Resort in the U.S.), was shortlisted for the Kerry Group Irish Novel of the Year 2019. Both books were BBC Radio 2 Book Club Picks. Her Victorian detective tale Things in Jars, was released to critical acclaim. Jess's work has been described as ‘Gabriel García Márquez meets The Pogues.' Jess' first children's book Everyday Magic came out in February 2021, published by Canongate. The fourth novel, The Night Ship, will be published in August 2022. She is also developing her own original TV projects with leading U.K. and international TV producers. Kidd (The Next Ship) pivots to cozies with this delightful series launch about a nun who forsakes her vows to search for a former novice. In 1954, Sister Nora Breen's friend and former trainee, Frieda Brogan, abruptly stops sending her letters. Frieda's last known address is the Gulls Nest, a forlorn boarding house in the English town of Gore-on-Sea, and a frightened Nora asks to be released from her monastery after 30 years to track Frieda down. Nora takes a room at the Gulls Nest, ingratiates herself with its ragtag collection of boarders, and soon realizes she's not the only one concealing a secret past. As she starts to dig into Frieda's stay there, other boarders begin to die under unusual circumstances, making her wonder whether Frieda might have met a similar fate. At first a thorn in the side of Detective Inspector Rideout, who's assigned to investigate the deaths, the intelligent and outspoken Nora gradually gains the policeman's respect. Elegant prose, vivid characterizations, and a fascinating protagonist add up to a thoroughly enjoyable mystery. Readers will be eager for the sequel.

Today's poem will leave you “knowing very well what it was all about.” Happy reading.Gary Soto was born in Fresno, California on April 12, 1952, to working-class Mexican American parents. As a teenager and college student, he worked in the fields of the San Joaquin Valley, chopping beets and cotton and picking grapes. He was not academically motivated as a child, but he became interested in poetry during his high school years. He attended Fresno City College and California State University–Fresno, and he earned an MFA from the University of California–Irvine in 1976.His first collection of poems, The Elements of San Joaquin (University of Pittsburgh Press), won the United States Award of the International Poetry Forum in 1976 and was published in 1977. Since then, Soto has published numerous books of poetry, including You Kiss by th' Book: New Poems from Shakespeare's Line (Chronicle Books, 2016), A Simple Plan (Chronicle Books, 2007), and New and Selected Poems (Chronicle Books, 1995), which was a finalist for the National Book Award.Soto cites his major literary influences as Edward Field, Pablo Neruda, W. S. Merwin, Gabriel García Márquez, Christopher Durang, and E. V. Lucas. Of his work, the writer Joyce Carol Oates has said, “Gary Soto's poems are fast, funny, heartening, and achingly believable, like Polaroid love letters, or snatches of music heard out of a passing car; patches of beauty like patches of sunlight; the very pulse of a life.”Soto has also written three novels, including Amnesia in a Republican County (University of New Mexico Press, 2003); a memoir, Living Up the Street (Strawberry Hill Press, 1985); and numerous young adult and children's books. For the Los Angeles Opera, he wrote the libretto to Nerdlandia, an opera.Soto has received the Andrew Carnegie Medal and fellowships from the California Arts Council, the Guggenheim Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Arts. He lives in Northern California.-bio via Academy of American Poets This is a public episode.

In this episode of Out of the Clouds host Anne Mühlethaler explores the evolution of digital spaces with Sari Azout, founder of Sublime, a personal knowledge management tool for creatives. Born in Barranquilla, Colombia — the magical hometown of Shakira and Gabriel García Márquez — Sari describes herself as a cerebral child who found her intellectual home first at Brown University, where she developed a "fiercely independent mindset" and discovered the joy of the library as a social space.With remarkable foresight( Sari "could always see around corners") she strategically planned her path to remain in the U.S. as an international student and got into banking, ultimately landing at Barclays during the 2008 financial crisis. This experience taught her valuable lessons about the importance of connecting work to meaningful impact.Next the pair discuss Sari's project, Sublime. Sari articulates her vision as both practical and philosophical, calling it "the personal knowledge management tool of my dreams." She explains that in a world where "intelligence is being commoditized," what remains valuable are "conviction, point of view, courage, intention — the artist's way." This connects to her writing practice, which has revealed that "ideas never come to me before I write. They always come to me in the process of writing."Their conversation delves into Sublime's three core promises: never lose a valuable idea, never be uninspired, and transform from passive consumption to active creation. Sari emphasizes wanting to "facilitate helping people make things, not just consume things," noting that "being a consumer is just a state of helplessness." Drawing inspiration from books and Marshall McLuhan's quote that "the medium is the message," she envisions a "sublime internet" that moves away from quantifiable metrics toward meaningful engagement.Sari also speaks candidly about the tension between selfishness and selflessness in entrepreneurship, and her "willingness to be misunderstood for a longer period." She shares her vision of transitioning from the attention economy to the intention economy, reframing digital tools as something "people use instead of products people consume."The episode concludes with Sari sharing her perspective on happiness and describing her version of "paradise on earth" as working all day alone in anticipation of an evening in great company. This interview with Sari is a fascinating exploration of how we might build more intentional, meaningful digital spaces that serve our creativity rather than just our consumption.

Mass violence did not always have a name. Like conquest, atrocity was not always seen as violating a moral norm or inviting indignation. Could the concept of atrocity even exist before people could accuse their own country of mass violence committed against the inhabitants of another country? In Atrocity: A Literary History (Stanford UP, 2025), Bruce Robbins details how, when and where the conceptual space opened to make the recognition of atrocity possible. Robbins reads Bartolomé de las Casas's account of his fellow Spaniards' atrocities, Grimmelshausen's 1668 novel Simplicissimus, Tolstoy's Hadji Murat, Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-Five, Gabriel García Márquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude, David Mitchell's Cloud Atlas, and many other writers to examine how writers not only develop but question what representations of atrocity achieve. Critically examining the emergence of a cosmopolitan ethic, and questioning the practical wisdom offered by the indignation or its refusal in the face of atrocity, Robbins argues for the invention of atrocity as a moral achievement, however tainted its development may have been.

Ofrecemos nuestro quinto capítulo de la #guíadelectura de #cienañosdesoledad, y para esta ocasión nos concentramos en un personaje particular, para compartir su complejidad y fascinación: el #coronelaurelianobuendía. El más solitario, taciturno, poeta y oscuro de toda la novela. Bienvenidos.
„Wiele lat później, stojąc naprzeciw plutonu egzekucyjnego, pułkownik Aureliano Buendía miał przypomnieć sobie to dalekie popołudnie, kiedy ojciec zabrał go z sobą do obozu Cyganów, żeby mu pokazać lód.” To jedno z najbardziej intrygujących i rozpoznawalnych zdań otwierających powieść w historii literatury. Tak, tak, dobrze państwo zgadują, Gabriel García Márquez i jego „Sto lat samotności” to finał Cyklu latynoamerykańskiego w „Raporcie o książkach”. Niezaprzeczalne arcydzieło literatury światowej, które od prawie 6 dekad nie przestaje fascynować czytelników i inspirować kolejnych twórców – co potwierdza nowy, pełen rozmachu serial. „Tak naprawdę nie znam nikogo, kto w jakiś sposób nie czułby się samotny. Uważam, że to zasadniczy element ludzkiej natury” – mówił García Márquez. W tym odcinku „Raportu o książkach” w gronie znakomitych gości poszukamy odpowiedzi na pytanie: ile w „Stu latach samotności” jest magii, a ile realizmu? Goście: Maciej Wesołowski i Tomasz Pindel Prowadzenie: Agata Kasprolewicz Książka: Gabriel García Márquez „Sto lat samotności” w przekładzie Grażyny Grudzińskiej i Kaliny Wojciechowskiej. --------------------------------------------- Raport o stanie świata to audycja, która istnieje dzięki naszym Patronom, dołącz się do zbiórki ➡️ https://patronite.pl/DariuszRosiak Subskrybuj newsletter Raportu o stanie świata ➡️ https://dariuszrosiak.substack.com Koszulki i kubki Raportu ➡️ https://patronite-sklep.pl/kolekcja/raport-o-stanie-swiata/ [Autopromocja]

It begins with one of the most iconic lines in literature: “Many years later, as he faced the firing squad, Colonel Aureliano Buendía was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover ice.”“One Hundred Years of Solitude,” Gabriel García Márquez's magical realist parable of imperialism in Latin America, is a tale of family, community, prophesy and disaster.
