- Summary:
- At first glance, Garcia Marquez's vivid and detailed portrait of his early life (recently released in Spanish in the U.S.) appears to be testament to a photographic memory. Yet as he explains in the epigraph, "Life isn't what one lived, but what one remembers and how one remembers it to tell it."
