Synopsis "La mala hora (in Spanish)"

\"El padre Ángel se incorporó con un esfuerzo solemne. Se frotó lospárpados con los huesos de las manos, apartó el mosquitero de punto ypermaneció sentado en la estera pelada, pensativo un instante, el tiempoindispensable para darse cuenta de que estaba vivo, y para recordar lafecha y su correspondencia en el santoral. «Martes, 4 de octubre»,pensó; y dijo en voz baja: «San Francisco de Asís».\"Al pueblo ha llegado «la mala hora» de los campesinos, la hora de ladesgracia. La comarca ha sido «pacificada» después de tanta guerracivil. Han ganado los conservadores, que se dedican a perseguir cruel ypertinazmente a sus adversarios liberales. Al alba de una mañana,mientras el padre Ángel se dispone a celebrar la misa, suena un disparoen el pueblo. Un comerciante de ganado, advertido de la infidelidad desu mujer por un pasquín pegado a la puerta de su casa, acaba de matar alpresunto amante de ésta. Es uno más de los pasquines anónimos clavadosen las puertas de las casas, que no son panfletos políticos, sinosimples denuncias sobre la vida privada de los ciudadanos. Pero norevelan nada que no se supiera de antemano: son los viejos rumores queahora se han hecho públicos, y a partir de ellos estalla la violenciasubyacente a la luz tórrida, espesa, cansada y pegajosa, en una serie deescenas encadenadas de inolvidable belleza.

Gabriel García Márquez (1927-2014), son of the Colombian Caribbean and immortal voice of Spanish narrative, is one of the most influential literary minds of the 20th century. Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1982, his talent transcended the boundaries of paper: he was a novelist, short story writer, essayist, screenwriter, film critic, and above all, a thinker committed to the pains and hopes of his homeland and all of Latin America. Architect of magical realism, he masterfully wove the everyday and the fantastic, making reality blur among yellow butterflies, eternal rains, and towns where the impossible was part of everyday life. His work gave life to a unique narrative universe, where history breathes, dreams, and bleeds intensely.

Among his most emblematic titles are One Hundred Years of Solitude, No One Writes to the Colonel, Chronicle of a Death Foretold, The General in His Labyrinth, Love in the Time of Cholera, and Strange Pilgrims, among others. In 2002 he opened the door to his memory with Living to Tell the Tale. In 2012, All the Stories were published, and, as if literary destiny refused to close the curtain on him, in 2024 his posthumous and unpublished novel See You in August was released.
