Gabriel García Márquez

Gabriel García Márquez 

Gabriel García Márquez, whose 91st birthday is the subject of today’s Google Doodle, was an undisputed giant of 20th century literature. He gave the world 100 Years of Solitude and Love in the Time of Cholera. He won a Nobel Prize, and after his death in 2014, the president of García Márquez’s native Colombia called him “the greatest Colombian who ever lived.” Part of what makes García Márquez so important and so beloved is the work he did to popularize magical realism.
