My Favourite Journalist: GGM


Gabriel García Marquez was a great journalist. He was born on Aracataca, Colombia, in 1927 he studied law, but he ended up working for the local newspaper. He is also known by his novels books.
My favourite work of him is One Hundred Years of Lonliness. I've read A Chronicle of  a Death Foretold, but it didn't like me so much.
He won the nobel prize in 1982 and whit the money of the prize he build an university only for journalist in Colombia.
I really like his legacy. He was a good man that loved journalism. He used to say that journalism was the best job in the world. Plus he is kown all over the world as the man who invented the Magic Realism. He really know about the Latinoamerican people, and you could see that on his work.
