This book, edited by Carlos Aznárez and Néstor Norma, presents a deep reflection on the impact of the discovery of America from a critical perspective. Through a compilation of opinions and analyses by prominent figures such as Gabriel García Márquez, Mario Vargas Llosa, and Ernesto Sábato, it is debated whether the encounter between Europe and America was an act of discovery or a genocide. The book invites a second reading of history, exploring the consequences of colonization and the legacy of this period.
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.
