«La increíble y triste historia de la cándida Eréndira y de su abuela desalmada» is the short story collection by Gabriel García Márquez in paperback, in Spanish.
The volume brings together seven narratives from García Márquez's maturity, headed by the short novel that gives the book its title. In the Macondian universe of magical realism, young Eréndira and her heartless grandmother embody the contrast between innocence and cruelty, and the narration evokes medieval deeds and troubadour songs of the American Caribbean.
The work belongs to the Contemporánea collection from DEBOLSILLO and was originally published in 1972.
Written by Nobel Prize in Literature laureate Gabriel García Márquez, it is intended for readers of Latin American fiction and magical realism.
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.
