Gabriel Garcia Marquez Gets A Google Doodle On His 91st Birth Anniversary

We Bring You Some Cool Facts!

Google pays tribute to the birthday of the great author Gabriel Garcia Marquez with a great Doodle

Nothing better than a Doodle about Garcia Marquez

This novelist mostly known as Gabo would have been 91 years old past March 6th. And Google remembers him through a Doodle dedicated to the memory of this great author. Between a colorful Amazonian jungle and the magical city of Macondo, from his book “One Hundred Years of Solitude”

This famous writer was born in Aracataca, Colombia on March 6th, 1927. He spent much of his life dedicating himself to journalism before he could truly begin his career as a novelist. For those who think that they have dedicated themselves to only one thing in life and believe that they can’t do anything more, this is a great example of life. If you truly want to you can.

Part of this amazing story

Here we will find a list of interesting facts about this literary that left Spanish America high:

1- He was called by many “the greatest Colombian that ever existed”. 

The author could deeply define the genre of magical realism. It paints a realistic view of the world while adding details and fantastic elements.

2- The book “one hundred years of solitude” that was published in 1967

It sold approximately more than 30 million copies. It continues to be a book that people recognize at first glance as the success of this writer.

3- Some of his other popular works include:

The Autumn of the Patriarch, which was sold in 1975 and The Love in Times of Cholera in 1985.

4- Garcia Marquez received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1982.

For his resounding successes throughout his career. Something well deserved for this writer of unique ideas. “I have the impression that when giving me the prize they have taken into account the literature of the subcontinent. They have granted me as a way of awarding the entirety of this literature.”

5- When Garcia Marquez’s popularity was at its peak

it also led to important friendships. Among them his friendly relationship with former Cuban President Fidel Castro. So much so that, in an interview in 1982, he declares that this friendship with Castro is based fundamentally on literature.

6- Leading figures of literature have praised Gabo.

Including Pablo Neruda, writing about One Hundred Years of Solitude as “the greatest revelation in Spanish since Don Quixote of Cervantes.”

What else can be said about this unique talent? Works that marked a before and after. With this, we hope that the following generations embody this way of expressing themselves. As did Gabriel Garcia Marquez through all his works, which covered different important topics.
