¿Why García Márquez had to seek asylum in Mexico?

It is never too late to do a tribute and to change our perception about the life and ideology of the most important ambassador that Colombia has had in all its history, the Nobel prized writer Gabriel García Márquez. In the following article, written by himself and shared by the independent group of journalists “Las 2 Orillas” in the last days, he explains the reasons why he had to leave his country and seek asylum in Mexico. It is sad how many people criticize “Gabo” just for the politic ideologies that he followed. We have to learn to respect the other´s point of view and we also have to stop judging the life of a man based on his thoughts, and not on his actions.  And the most important action that Gabo did in his life was to make proud and to fill with honor this country with his oeuvre.


The article is in the following link, in “Las 2 Orillas” website:
