Abstract

Since the publication of the novel One Hundred Years of Solitude [Cien anos de soledad] in 1967, which immediately made its author a worldwide celebrity, Gabriel Garcia Marquez has had to answer an infinite number of questions and repeatedly tell how his books were written. For several years the Colombian writer eagerly responded to requests for interviews, as he once explained, not only out of a sense of professional solidarity with his fellow journalists but out of respect for the readers. And it is true that Garcia Marquez's attitude toward his readers is one of respect and gratitude. He is among those creative figures for whom the drive for self-expression is inseparable from the need constantly to sense a flow of readers' perceptions in response, the living warmth of human sympathy.
