My favorite Writer

My favorite writer is Gabriel Garcia Marquez. I think it is known by all but here are some data. Gabriel Garcia Marquez was born on March 6, 1927 in Aracata, Colombia. He died a short time ago, on April 17, 2104 in Mexico City. Garcia Marquez was a Colombian writer, journalist, editor and screenwriter. He is the most important author of the literary current known as "magic realism". His most important and well-known novel is the famous "One Hundred Years of Solitude". The first edition was launched in 1967 and since then it has become one of the most important novels in Latin American literature. To date, 30 million copies of the novel have been sold in 35 different languages. Gabriel Garcia Marquez received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1982, being the fourth Latin American to win the prestigious award. The last book I read about Gabo was "12 Pilgrim Stories", short but incredible stories, only as Garcia Marquez could tell.

    I really enjoyed One Hundred Years of Solitude, it's such a good book! I always remember the Oscar Chavez's song "Macondo" <3

    I love Gabriel Garcia Marquez, his somewhat fantastic and surreal literature really seems great to me. It is also a classics classic

My experience with the blog

A few years ago I made a blog and shared things to talk but I closed it because I was not very motivated by the format. But this time it was different because having a theme to post with several colleagues the dynamic changes. First because you have to write in English, which adds an extra difficulty in writing and reading. Writing a common theme among classmates makes it entertaining because you discover things that in general are not discussed much. Writing in English implies that you have to think a lot more about what you want to say, which also makes you wonder better what you want to write. In relation to the photos, in some post it was difficult to choose an image that synthesized what was written. When reviewing my post I also realize that I am a little obsessed with the guitar, is that I love her! jajajaj In general I think it has been a very good pedagogic exercise and also useful to go letting go of writing in English. I have felt very comfortable writing this and the ...

Roger Waters in Santiago 2007

In this new post, I will write about the best concert I've ever been to. In my life I have attended several quite good concerts. But the first one I went is my favorite and the most beloved, I mean the concert "The dark side of the moon " by Roger Waters. The concert was at the National Stadium on March 14, 2007.  At that time I was 22 year old and I was studying in Valparaiso. Roger Waters was a member of the English rock band Pink Floyd, composing much of the band's lyrics and songs. "The dark side of the moon" is a trascendental album in rock music, and is considered by many critics as the best rock album of all time. The concert was incredible. Before it started people were very restless and excited. There were people of all ages. The concert began and the stadium vibrated, one classic theme after another, played with mastery. The sound was incredible and the lights and special effects were worthy of any Pink Floyd concert. I remember that ...
