35、ogy(三部曲) that will make up the memoirs (回忆录) of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the famous Colombian writer who initially won public praise in the mid-1960s for his novel One Hundred Years of Solitude. At that time, Garcia Marquez, a journalist and writer had never sold more than 700 copies of a book. While
36、 driving his family through Mexico, he had a real brainstorm. He remembered his grandmothers storytelling technique-to recall fantastic, improbable events as if they had actually happened-literally. He turned the car around and drove back home to begin One Hundred Years of Solitude in a new way. To
37、my mind it is one of the 20th centurys best works of fiction, and won Garcia Marquez the 1982 Nobel Prize in Literature. Living to Tell the Tale relates the early years of the authors life, although some of the books most important incidents happened earlier than Garcia Marquezs birth. The impact of
38、 these experiences, the people and their stories were to have a powerful effect on him, as a man and as a writer. This is the tale of his parents love, marriage and the birth of their children. It tells of his early years which were spent in Aracataca, in the home of his grandparents. His grandfathe
39、r, Colonel Nicolas Ricardo Marquez Mejia, was a soldier of the Thousand Days War. He was supposedly a storyteller of great reputation. He told his young grandson that there was no greater burden than to have killed a man. Later Garcia Marquez would put these words into the mouths of his characters.
40、His grandmother, Tranquilina Iguaran Cotes, also had a major influence on Garcias life. No matter how fantastic her statements were, she always delivered them as if they were the absolute truth. This was the style which was to affect Garcia Marquezs fiction, sometimes called “magical realism”. The w
41、oman filled the house with stories of ghosts and future signs, all of which were ignored by her husband. He had little interest in “womens beliefs”. In 1940, when he was 13, Garcia was awarded a scholarship to a secondary school for gifted students. It was during his school years, 1940s and 50s, tha
42、t he was first drawn to poetry, a national obsession in Colombia. He and his friends, fellow students, would read aloud and discuss poetry late into the night. Too poor to buy his own books, Gabriel would read novels borrowed from friends. While still a boy, he decided he wanted to be a writer. The
43、people who surrounded him in his childhood later became instrumental when developing the characters and the storylines for his novels. Love In the Time of Cholera was inspired by the romance between his mother and father. And his grandfather, who had twelve children (some say 16), became Colonel Aureliano Buendia in One Hundred Years of Solitude. Garcia Marquez b
