Publisher's Synopsis

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.

About the Publisher

Penguin Books

The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
