Abstract

ORIHUELA, Juan Carlos. Imagination, disproportion and critical realism in the work of Gabriel García Márquez. Rev Cien Cult [online]. 2017, vol.21, n.39, pp.73-83. ISSN 2077-3323.

The author traces the narrative work of Gabriel García Márquez on the development and evolution of some of the most characteristic brands of his style (overflowing imagination and disproportion as a response to Spanish-American narrative realism) that were deployed, both before and after Cien años de soledad, in several famous stories. He further argues that once García Márquez reaches the top of this proposal in the aforementioned book and in some later stories, the writer tends to modify his artistic proposal in novels such as El general en su laberinto and Crónica de una muerte anunciada.
