When twelve-year-old Sierva María is bitten by a rabid dog in colonial South America, she is sent to a convent to endure torturous therapies for supposed demonic possession. There, she meets Father Cayetano Delaura, with whom she shares a doomed and intense affair. A tale of passion, mystery, and death set in the exotic Caribbean world.
Gabriel José García Márquez was a Colombian writer and journalist, known affectionately as Gabo or Gabito throughout Latin America. Considered one of the most significant authors of the 20th century, particularly in the Spanish language, he was awarded the 1972 Neustadt International Prize for Literature and the 1982 Nobel Prize in Literature. He pursued a self-directed education that resulted in leaving law school for a career in journalism. From early on he showed no inhibitions in his criticism of Colombian and foreign politics. In 1958, he married Mercedes Barcha Pardo; they had two sons, Rodrigo and Gonzalo.
