Autumn Patriarch

Gabriel Garciamarquez

"The Autumn of the Patriarch" is an encyclopedia filled with the songs and melodies of the Colombian coast, its animals and herbs, anecdotes and tragedies, imaginary love stories and bloody facts, magic and spells, banquets of wet human flesh, and a sea that sells numbered pieces. A terrifying novel in which Gabriel García Márquez transcends the borders of Latin America, and an omnipresent dictator declares a state of war on all his rivals, from children to the papal seat in Rome... where he says in the height of his fall, long live I... his victims die: children and dissidents, clergy And rebels, Indians and Hindus, Arabs and other oppressors. I lived, he says. However, in the end, he finds himself face to face with death in wonderful pages in which Marquis intensifies the other side of life, the life that the Patriarch could only see from the back, before the enormous time of eternity ended, and before the bells of joy rang and the songs of liberation sounded, and from the patriarch's childhood to His assumption of power or, conversely, since his assumption of power to his first childhood, which we get to know in sync with his second childhood, according to the sequence of events and their overlap in the novel, there is a closed time that is the space in which the events of this wonderful Marquez take place. A closed circuit movement and a stunning anthem against dictatorship, in a style that combines poetry, music and cinematic script.
