G.G.MARQUEZ & Magical Realism

What are you supposed to do with El Gabo
Are you aware of his writting do you admire him, if its an exposition of his work, he is a communist on his political views he gets along with Castro, he is a great writter but not too good of a politiician... what is this about...

He is a great writter, but what is this about could you specify please to have a better cognotation, because its denotation is just a big tittle and no reference at all, I guess you love us to wonder about your stuff, and me as latin, and a good reader of Marquez, does not make a clik sorry pal....

FYI:

The term magic realism, originally applied in the 1920s to a school of painters, is used to describe the prose fiction of Jorge Luis Borges in Argentina, as well as the work of writers such as Gabriel García Márquez in Colombia, Gunter Grass in Germany, and John Fowles in England. These writers interweave, in an ever-shifting pattern, a sharply etched realism in representing ordinary events and descriptive details together with fantastic and dreamlike elements, as well as with materials derived from myth and fairy tales.

Robert Scholes has popularized metafiction as an overall term for the large and growing class of novels which depart drastically from the traditional categories either of realism or romance, and also the term fabulation for the current mode of free-wheeling narrative invention. These novels violate, in various ways, standard novelistic expectations by drastic -- and sometimes highly effective -- experiments with subject matter, form, style, temporal sequence, and fusions of the everyday, the fantastic, the mythical, and the nightmarish, in renderings that blur traditional distinctions between what is serious or trivial, horrible or ludicrous, tragic or comic.

I guess some are not aware of the term Magical Relism... and is just outdated.

I assume either this is a poster to advertise the book, or it's a new cover for the book or something like that... but how are we supposed to know???

This time I'll quote the whole thing:

"What do you want me to do? Draw you a picture? Spell it out? Don't ever ask me! Long as you live, don't ever ask me more." John Wayne, Searchers, 1956, Google.
