review 1: What would a writer such as Gabriel Garcia Marquez write to inspire, to show gratitude, to explain himself and his craft as a writer? If you're even vaguely curious, this book is for you. It's a collection of speeches. And that, coming from a writer such as GGM, is pure gold. In the first speech, 1944, he's leaving high school and writes and ode to friendship. Then the next speech is in 1970. Through those speeches we can follow GGM's biographical details, laugh at his decidedly funny remarks, get impressed with the extent of his accomplishments and, above all, marvel at his wisdom, which he imparts with abandon in every page.
review 2: This book was a beautiful surprise to me. It is another kind of biographical novel where I could learn so much about the life,... more the believes, the passions and social contributions of one of my favourite writers. It is amazing how many things a person can do and how many contributions it can bring to this world by beliveing and fighting for a cause. I reccommend this book to anyone interested in learning more about Marquez' life, as a starting point for further and deeper knowledge. less
