Unseen Gabriel García Márquez Novel to be Published Next Year
On Friday, Penguin Random House announced that an unpublished Gabriel García Márquez novel will be published across Latin America in 2024. The never-before-seen book is entitled En Agosto Nos Vemos, or We’ll See Each Other in August. “We’ll See Each Other in August was the result of a last effort to continue creating against the wind and tide. Reading it once again almost 10 years after his death we discovered that the text had many and very enjoyable merits and nothing to prevent enjoying the most outstanding of Gabo’s work: his capacity for invention, the poetry of language, the captivating narrative, his understanding of the human being and his affection for his experiences and misadventures, especially in love, possibly the main theme of all his work,” Marquez’s children Rodrigo and Gonzalo García Barcha said in a press release. An English edition of the novel has not yet been announced.
