Speaking: Gabriel García Márquez

Why is the originality so readily granted us in literature so mistrustfully denied us in our difficult attempts at social change? ... we, the inventors of tales, who will believe anything, feel entitled to believe that it is not yet too late to engage in the creation of the opposite utopia. A new and sweeping utopia of life, where no one will be able to decide for others how they die, where love will...

A life of rhyme: John Cooper Clarke, the 'punk Poet Laureate', grants Robert Chalmers his first major interview in more than 20 years

The late Tony Wilson once told me, "I'm not the one who will have his life turned into legend, in the way that happened to Baudelaire, Verlaine and Rimbaud. It won't be me. It will be John Cooper Clarke." "Bloody hell," says the poet. That conversation took place 20 years ago, I tell him – when Wilson was still running the Haçienda; years before the release of Control...

Bolaño ain’t what he’s all cracked up to be

A novelist and friend of the late (but recently lit-knighted) Roberto Bolaño notes that all this myth building around him is getting to be a bit much. And worse still, the attention is giving a false impression of Latin America. Moya believes that, as the magic realism of Gabriel García Márquez began to lose its luster [...]

Movie Review: Tinker Bell And The Lost Treasure – Blu-ray Disc

I’m not much into magic or magical anything. That eliminates most fantasy writing, a lot of video games and a host of other things. The one exception I do make is the novels and novellas of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the father of Magical Realism. Also, I like the Force and the mystical power that guides [...]

Roberto Bolaño was no literary rebel, says novelist Horacio Castellanos Moya

The myths surrounding the late Chilean author are false, says Bolaño's friend and fellow novelist, Horacio Castellanos Moya He's been compared to James Dean and described as the "Kurt Cobain of Latin-American literature", but the real Roberto Bolaño was very different to the myth created by the North American cultural establishment, according to the author's friend and fellow...

The best book I’ve never read

For approximately the 450th time (well, that may be a slight exaggeration) I tried to read more than 50 pages into The Forsyte Saga, by John Galsworthy. Two hours later I woke up with a page-dented cheek and put it back on the bookshelf with a sigh. I’ve done the same with Gabriel García Márquez [...]

A travel writer reflects... Cartagena, the world's best kept secret (jewel) - and other Colombian emeralds

This is an article by Graziano Freschi, experienced traveller and connoisseur. Cartagena is,without a shadow of doubt, one of the world's most beautiful cities. In addition it benefits from a stunning setting along the Caribbean Sea and weather almost too perfect to be true (sunny and breezy during the day, warm breeze at night). Cartagena's perfectly preserved city centre includes several impressive...

Serious offers and old gossip

Just another sane Monday in movieland. * Halcyon, a somewhat odd firm with an all but empty website, has officially put its one and only asset and reason for being, the rights to “The Terminator” franchise, on the auction block. So reports Variety and Nikki Finke. Suddenly, over at Whedonesque — yes, the Joss Whedon fansite [...]
