Documentary Recommendation: Gabo–the Creation of Gabriel Garcia Marquez

I've been listening to One Hundred Years of Solitude as an audiobook and watching this documentary on Marquez' life and work. I'm still taken by the idea of a large story following several generations-seven generations I think and I'm taken by the idea he was influenced by his Grandparent's stories where local stories, fantastic details and family legends mix together. I also love how the doc is unapolegetically in Spanish.

John Paul Jaramillo's stories have appeared in the Acentos Review, Palabra, A Magazine of Chicano and Latino Literary Art and Somos en Escrito-most recently in La Casita Grande Lounge and Nat Brut #9. He is the author of the story collection The House of Order, named a 2013 Int'l Latino Book Award Finalist, and the novel in stories Little Mocos from Twelve Winters Press. In 2013 Latino Boom: An Anthology of U.S. Latino Literature listed Jaramillo as one of its Top 10 New Latino Authors to Watch and Read.
