Garcia Marquez . The former successor to controversial opinions on Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, our "Gabo" he kept, although less noticed within our population always dull and stupid media, vision the world and humanity, political opinion and social and huge desire to fight for aesthetics conditions of Latin American people. Garcia Marquez suffered unimaginable during his ascent, the insufferable, narrow as it passes through newspapers and their complicated journeys, happily in the company of friends, through different countries in Europe, Eastern Europe and even Russia. He made friends and contacts at the end of the year and quietly influenced in important activities and initiatives in the face of American processes. Close friend of Fidel Castro is almost idealized hope and a better world together, playing the style of Che Guevara, but his literary role was perhaps more important than we think and let us know. Maybe in other countries can assess the impact of our author and his work in the spirit and now Latin American literary world.
Founded in 1974 nearly the most popular periodical in the history of the Left in Colombia: Alternative Magazine.
For all this, remains still alive thanks to our permanent Gabo seed hermit and friendly links with celebrities and influential people.
Maybe a life, Gerald Martin, described as the best document almost the entire life of a Garcia Marquez persistent in his work literary and not so much in their political ideals either old age or the decline of the labor socialist ideas socialist leaders today as decadent. However, this document so subtle life and work of a writer passionate about the lyrics to the point of being a literary eminence, it is worth for those wishing to take a bath realistic nationalism, political activism and social and magic realism.

General Augusto Pinochet, Gustavo Leigh, Cesar Medez Danyau and Admiral Jose Toribio Merino, Member of the military junta:
You are perpetrators of the death of President Salvador Allende and the Chilean people never allow it to govern a gang of criminals in the pay of American imperialism "

Garcia Marquez, in response to a New York journalist in 1971, had said:
.
" I aspire to all of Latin America is socialist, but now people are very excited about socialism peacefully, within the Constitution. All this seems very attractive electorally, but I think is totally unrealistic. Chile is doomed to a violent process very dramatic. While the popular front is progressing, with intelligence and tact to step quite fast and firm, there will come a time when find a wall that opposes it seriously. The United States is not now interfering, but they will not cruzarce arms. They will not accept the truth that is a socialist country. They will not allow us no illusions ... Not that I see [violence] as a solution, but I think that wall, at a time, can only be cross with violence. Unfortunately I think it's inevitable, it will. I think what is happening in Chile is very good as reform but not revolution. "
