Esta novela histórica de Gabriel García Márquez recrea los últimos días de Simón Bolívar, el Libertador de América del Sur. A través de un viaje por el río Magdalena, el autor explora la decadencia física y política de un hombre que, tras haber alcanzado la gloria, se enfrenta a la soledad, el desengaño y la pérdida de su sueño de una América unida. Con su característico estilo narrativo, García Márquez humaniza al mito, presentándolo atrapado en el labirinto de sus propios recuerdos y fracasos. Es una obra profunda sobre el poder, el destino y la fragilidad de la condición humana, ambientada en el ocaso de una de las figuras más importantes de la historia universal.
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.
