Magical Realist Departs

The renowned Colombian Nobel Laureate who found his own place in world literature by unleashing a worldwide boom in Spanish literature and magical realism- Gabriel Garcia Marquez- passed away this morning at the age of 87. His enchanted readers literally celebrated his "Hundred years of Solitude" and "Love in the Time of Cholera". His autobiography " Living to tell a Tale" was published in 2002.
