About this listen
En El olor de la guayaba pueden encontrarse las claves de un proceso creador y creativo de singular riqueza.
Si formalmente El olor de la guayaba es una prolongada conversación del escritor y periodista Plinio Apuleyo Mendoza con su viejo amigo Gabriel García Márquez—lo que da ocasión a éste para desgranar convivacidad sus remembranzas, juicios, opiniones y convicciones—sus contenidos van mucho más allá: en El olor de la guayaba bien pueden encontrarse las claves de un proceso, creador y creativo, de singular riqueza.
De la mano de Mendoza, García Márquez desvela el mundo que refleja su obra—hasta transfigurarlo—con la magia de la palabra: la calidezy el color del Caribe, el universo mítico de sus pobladores, la extraña mentalidad de sus extraños prohombres y caudillos. Una obra en la que el compromiso con la emoción y el compromiso con la razón se dan la mano, para ofrecer la más sugerente aproximación a un ser que de puro complejo puede permitirse el lujo de ser nítido.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Aclamado por el pueblo como Libertador, blanco de numerosas conjuras políticas y militares, héroe romántico y hasta libertino para sus detractores y sus partidarios, idealista íntegro y abandonado que contempla las ruinas de su sueño de unidad de los pueblos americanos, tras la independencia del dominio español Simón Bolívar emprende - enfermo, con un menguado séquito - el que será su viaje final. Parte desde Bogotá para seguir el curso del río Magdalena.

García Márquez construyó, en El otoño del patriarca, una maquinaria narrativa perfecta que desgrana una historia universal -la agonía y muerte de un dictador- en forma cíclica, experimental y real al mismo tiempo, en seis bloques narrativos sin diálogos, sin puntos y aparte, repitiendo una anécdota siempre igual y siempre distinta, acumulando hechos y descripciones deslumbrantes.

La inspiración para escribir este libro le llegó a García Márquez con una insólita noticia que tuvo que cubrir como periodista. El 26 de octubre de 1949 el reportero Gabriel García Márquez fue enviado al antiguo convento de Santa Clara, que iba a ser demolido para edificar sobre él un hotel de cinco estrellas, a presenciar el vaciado de las criptas funerarias y a cubrir la noticia. Se exhumaron los restos de un virrey del Perú y su amante secreta, un obispo, varias abadesas, un bachiller de artes y una marquesa.

Al pueblo ha llegado «la mala hora» de los campesinos, la hora de la desgracia. La comarca ha sido «pacificada» después de tanta guerra civil. Han ganado los conservadores, que se dedican a perseguir cruel y pertinazmente a sus adversarios liberales. Al alba de una mañana, mientras el padre Ángel se dispone a celebrar la misa, suena un disparo en el pueblo. Un comerciante de ganado, advertido de la infidelidad de su mujer por un pasquín pegado a la puerta de su casa, acaba de matar al presunto amante de ésta.

En Macondo transcurre la historia de un entierro imposible. Ha muerto un personaje extraño, un antiguo médico odiado por el pueblo, y un viejo coronel retirado, para cumplir una promesa, se ha empeñado en enterrarle ante la oposición de todo el pueblo y sus autoridades. Como en una tragedia griega -el libro lleva como lema una cita de Antígona que recuerda la prohibición de enterrar el cuerpo del Polinices-, el viejo coronel, su hija y su nieto van a cumplir la ominosa tarea.

El personaje de Isabel reaparecerá en su primera novela, y el tema de la lluvia cayendo interminablemente, en su personal versión del diluvio universal, acabaría integrándose suave y flexiblemente en Cien años de soledad. Esta edición incluye, además, cuentos: «Tubal-Caín forja una estrella», «De cómo Natanael hace una visita» y «Un hombre viene bajo la lluvia».

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.

Fueron los años en los que Macondo le abrió las puertas del realismo mágico: la frase se hace más larga y caudalosa, la realidad se expresa mediante fórmulas mágicas y legendarias, los milagros se insertan en la vida cotidiana.

For his victims, for their families and for the investigators tasked with finding him, the senselessness and brutality of the Golden State Killer's acts were matched only by the powerlessness they felt at failing to uncover his identity. Then, on April 24, 2018, authorities arrested 72-year-old Joseph James DeAngelo at his home in Citrus Heights, Calif., based on DNA evidence linked to the crimes. Amazingly, it seemed, evil finally had a name. Please note: This work contains descriptions of violent crime and sexual assault and may not be suitable for all listeners.

One of his high school classmates, Danny Corwin, was a vicious serial killer.

It is also a story of Texas politics and power that led the good citizens of the town of Temple to enable a demon who was their worst nightmare.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

Me encantó este diálogo entre dos amigos. Supe mucho acerca de GGM que no sabía antes. Me enteré de donde habían salido los rasgos de muchos de los personajes de sus libros que he leído, y me sentí motivado a leer los que todavía no he leído.
La narración por los dos lectores fue muy ameno y verosímil.
