The complete works of Gacía Márquez are a must but the first volume of his memoirs is another masterpiece. Donna Seaman of the Booklist wrote in her review: "Invaluable in its personal and cultural history, and triumphant in its compassion and artistry, García Márquez's portrait of himself as a young writer is as revelatory and powerful as his fiction."
