## Description

'My mother asked me to go with her to sell the house' Gabriel García Márquez was twenty-three when his mother asked him to come with her, back to the village of Aracataca. In this first part of Gabriel García Márquez's memoir, the Nobel prize-winning author returns to the atmosphere and influences that that shaped his formidable imagination and formed the basis of his world-famous, and much-loved, fiction. Living to Tell the Tale is re-issued on Gabriel García Márquez 's birthday to celebrate the publication of his books as ebooks for the first time.
