Summary
Gabriel Garcia Marquez: The Adventure of Miguel Littín
The first Croatian edition of Gabriel García Márquez's novel - The Adventure of Miguel Littín (a novel that now appears for the first time in Croatian) is based on the research method and nature of the reportage structure. But that's not all. It is also an exciting reconstruction of an adventure whose ultimate purpose was undoubtedly far nobler and more touching than the original, successfully implemented idea of secretly shooting a film under the nose of the terrifying Chilean military authorities suggests. The style of the text in its final form is, of course, mine, because the writer's voice is unstoppable, especially when almost six hundred pages need to be compressed into less than one hundred and fifty. I tried, nevertheless, to keep in several places the typically Chilean expressions of the original narration and to respect the storyteller's opinion without exception"
