Bajo el lema de estos funerales mitológicos, Gabriel García Márquez reunió en 1962 siete relatos y la novela corta que da título al presente volumen, en el que aparece ya en todo su esplendor el elemento mágico y telúrico que a partir de entonces definiría su obra.Estamos en Macondo y su región una vez más, entre personajes y episodios reconocibles, pero ahora caen pájaros muertos sobre el poblado, rompiendo mosquiteros y alambradas, un cura ve al diablo o afirma haber encontrado al judío errante, y visitar la tumba de un ser querido supone un riesgo impredecible. Y hay que enterrar a la Mamá Grande, soberana absoluta de este mundo, que falleció en olor de santidad a los noventa y dos años, tras haber conservado la virginidad durante toda su vida, y a cuyos funerales acude el presidente de la República y hasta el Sumo Pontífice en su góndola papal, pero también guajiros, contrabandistas, arroceros, prostitutas, hechiceros y bananeros llegados para la ocasión. «Ésta es, incrédulos del mundo entero, la verídica historia de la Mamá Grande, soberana absoluta del reino de Macondo, que vivió en función de dominio durante 92 años y murió en olor de santidad un martes de septiembre pasado, y a cuyos funerales vino en Sumo Pontífice.»
Rafael Conte ha dicho...
«El mayor juglar de nuestro tiempo, el hombre que por lo menos nos ha hecho menos infelices, o quizá rotundamente más felices en estos tan infelices tiempos que nos ha tocado habitar.» ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Big Mama's Funeral is a long short story by Gabriel García Márquez that satirizes Latin American life and culture. It displays the exaggeration associated with magic realism. Most of the places' names mentioned come from Colombia, and "Big Mama" herself is an exaggeration of the 'cacique' (political boss), a familiar figure in Latin American history and tradition. In Big Mama's Funeral, we find ourselves in Macondo once again, among recognizable characters and events. The story centers around Big Mama's burial, absolute sovereign of this world, who died in holiness at the age of 92, after having preserved her virginity throughout her life, and whose funeral is attend by the President of the Republic and even the Supreme Pontiff, but also by peasants, smugglers, rice farmers, prostitutes, sorcerers, and banana growers. Under the motto of these mythological funerals, the author gathered seven stories, and also the novelle that gives this book its title, in which the magical elements, that would from then on define Garcia Marquez' work, appear in all its splendor cohabiting with reality.

Not true to size! Otherwise, excellent sandal
Size: 11 Little Kid, Color: Off-white Faux Leather
While the sandal was built well and looks amazing it is sized way to big. We went up a size so she would have them thru the summer. We had to return them, because she would not fit them even thru summer.
Will try to find a smaller size because we loved the make and look of the sandal. Definitely size down if wanting it for your child now.

Nice adjustable strap
Size: One Size, Color: (015) Halo Gray / / Astro Pink
Okay cap with adjustable strap and lightweight material. Doesn’t hold its shape well. But otherwise it’s a okay cap to throw on for sun protection .
