Sobre este artículo
Bogota, Columbia: Ediciones, S. L. B., 1955. First edition of the author's first book. Cover by Cecilia Porras, 137, [5] pp. Stapled in printed self-wrappers with moderate wear and chipping to tips of spine, bit of wear and soiling to extremities, ink scribble on front cover, bookseller's stamp to back cover crossed out in ink, ownership initials to front blank, ownership signature and date to title page, and text evenly tanned. Very good copy of this book. First edition of the author's first book. Cover by Cecilia Porras, 137, [5] pp. The colophon states a printing size of 4000, but the publisher's finances made it such that they could only retrieve copies as they were paid for, so most copies are assumed to have been left there, either pulped or lost. García Márquez himself stated that, prior to One Hundred Years of Solitude, no more than 700 copies of his books were sold, and that this was the case here. In this period in Colombia, it would've been highly unlikely for a relatively unknown author to print more than 1000 copies of a work, and that the number 4000 was more likely an ideal, or a marketing technique.

Sinopsis
Gabriel García Márquez , nacido en Colombia, fue una de las figuras más importantes e influyentes de la literatura universal. Ganador del Premio Nobel de Literatura, fue además cuentista, ensayista, crítico cinematográfico, autor de guiones y, sobre todo, intelectual comprometido con los grandes problemas de nuestro tiempo, en primer término con los que afectaban a su amada Colombia y a Hispanoamérica en general. Máxima figura del realismo mágico, fue en definitiva el hacedor de uno de los mundos narrativos más densos de significados que ha dado la lengua española en el siglo xx. Entre sus obras más importantes se encuentran las novelas Cien años de soledad , El coronel no tiene quien le escriba , Crónica de una muerte anunciada , La mala hora , El general en su laberinto , El amor en los tiempos del cólera , Memoria de mis putas tristes , el libro de relatos Doce cuentos peregrinos , la primera parte de su autobiografía, Vivir para contarla , y sus discursos reunidos, Yo no vengo a decir un discurso . Falleció en 2014.
