Gabriel García Márquez – First U.S. Editions of The General in His Labyrinth and The Autumn of the Patriarch
This compelling two-volume offering presents two of Gabriel García Márquez’s most resonant political novels, each in its First U.S. Edition.
In The General in His Labyrinth (Knopf, 1990), Márquez turns his luminous prose to the final days of Simón Bolívar, the liberator of South America. Weakened in body but unrelenting in spirit, Bolívar journeys down the Magdalena River, haunted by past triumphs, betrayals, and a dissolving dream of continental unity. It is a profound portrait of a revolutionary icon at the end of his road—a meditation on power, memory, and mortality.
Paired with The Autumn of the Patriarch, a fierce and lyrical exploration of dictatorship and isolation, this duo reveals Márquez at the height of his literary and political insight. Blending magical realism with searing critique, it’s a poetic dissection of absolute power and its isolating grip.
Together, these two first editions form a powerful statement on leadership, legacy, and the human cost of history—an essential addition to any collection of Latin American literature or Nobel Prize authors.Gabriel García Márquez Duo – First U.S. Editions of The General in His Labyrinth and The Autumn of the Patriarch
