Notes: first edition of garcía márquez's masterpiece and that which won him the Nobel Prize for Literature. An immediate bestseller that established him as a major contemporary author, this was the work that popularized Latin American literature around the globe.
with--Copies of the second and third printings issued in June and December of the same year. Scattered wear. Buenos Aires: Sudamericana, 1967. Beyond the fact that they prove the work's immediate success, they are notable in that they contain the original cover design intended by the author.
