Absorbing non-fiction account on the Colombian drug cartels. The first appearance of the title in the United States. Gabriel Garcia Marquez's book demonstrates once again that the origin of his "Magical Realist" genius as a novelist is deeply rooted in his journalistic talent and rigorous training for telling as simply as possible a fantastic true story. This title has now been out-of-print as a hardcover for a long time. This copy has no flaws, a pristine beauty. A scarce copy thus. Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1982. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A flawless copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER GABRIEL GARCIA MARQUEZ TITLES IN OUR CATALOG). ISBN 0375400516. $30.00
