García Márquez gives us not the icon but the man - flesh and blood, complex, contradictory, worthy of both adoration and anger - seen among his enemies and partisans. And as Bolivar re-examines his life in the fierce light of death's imminence, history rushes in and the reader is immersed in the momentous decades-long adventure that Bolivar set in motion and that ultimately changed the destiny of a continent.'

Zustand: Near Fine. dj. First printing. First UK edition of the Nobel Prize-winning Colombian novelist's fictionalized account of Simón Bolívar's last months. "Had Bolivar not existed," Atwood writes, "Mr. Garcia Marquez would have had to invent him." In some respects, he did: the events of Bolívar's final days are unrecorded in official histories, and the author's recreation of that time incorporates both critique and invention, resulting in what is less a traditional historical novel than what Alvarez Borland calls a historiographic metafiction. "Seldom has there been a more fitting match between author and subject. Mr. Garcia Marquez wades into his flamboyant, often improbable and ultimately tragic material with enormous gusto, heaping detail upon sensuous detail, alternating grace with horror, perfume with the stench of corruption, the elegant language of public ceremony with the vulgarity of private moments, the rationalistic clarity of Bolivar's thought with the malarial intensity of his emotions, but tracing always the main compulsion that drives his protagonist: the longing for an independent and unified South America" (Atwood). A beautiful copy of this ambitious portrait of the Liberator of South America. 8'' x 5.25''. Original green cloth, gilt-lettered spine. In original unclipped (13.99 net) color pictorial jacket. Light green endpapers. 286 pages. Jacket with a couple of laminate creases. Book with tiny spot of soil to top edge of text block. Else crisp and tight. Near fine in very good plus jacket.…
