Sweeping through crumbling towns, travelling fairs and windswept ports, Gabriel Garcìa Márquez introduces a host of extraordinary characters and communities in his mesmerising tales of everyday life: smugglers, bagpipers, the President and Pope at the funeral of Macondo's revered matriarch; a very old angel with enormous wings. Teeming with the magical oddities for which his novels are loved, Márquez's stories are a delight.
Gabriel Garcìa Márquez's Collected Stories are re-issued on Gabriel Garcìa Márquez 's birthday to celebrate the publication of his books as ebooks for the first time.
