About This Novel
"The murderer tried every possible means to find someone to stop him from committing the crime, but what he got was everyone's indifference and onlookers." "A Murder Case Publicized in Advance" is based on a real event: In 1951, a friend of García Márquez was brutally murdered in front of the whole town. "I was so eager to tell this case, maybe it determined my career as a writer." But it was not until 1981, after 30 years of investigation and thinking, that Marquez finally found the key to this tragedy. At this time, Marquez had been on a literary strike for five years in protest against the dictatorship. However, in order to complete this work, he broke his vow and wrote this shocking tragedy - "A Murder Case that was Publicized in advance." The following year, Marquez was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature.
