«En este libro hay más lecciones valiosas sobre el oficio de novelista que en cualquier facultad de literatura.» Juan Gabriel Vásquez.

En septiembre de 1967, unos jóvenes Gabriel García Márquez y Mario Vargas Llosa se reunieron en Lima para hablar de literatura latinoamericana. El primero había vendido ya miles de ejemplares de Cien años de soledad. El segundo acababa de ganar el Premio Rómulo Gallegos por La casa verde.

Hoy ambos son considerados universalmente dos de los máximos exponentes de la literatura en español, pero por aquel entonces eran dos jóvenes que estaban empezando su carrera como novelistas. En Dos soledades se sitúan frente a frente dos escritores, dos genios literarios, dos maneras diferentes de entender la literatura, dos temperamentos en cierto modo contradictorios, dos formas distintas de narrar. Son los tiempos en que el boom se está gestando, en los que todavía no se ha acuñado nombre para lo que hoy conocemos como «realismo mágico». En estas páginas apasionantes, el lector asiste a una conversación sin igual.

La edición incorpora textos de Juan Gabriel Vásquez, Luis Rodríguez Pastor, José Miguel Oviedo, Abelardo Oquendo, Abelardo Sánchez León y Ricardo González Vigil, quienes rememoran, la mayoría en calidad de testigos, aquel diálogo; y, además, dos entrevistas al escritor colombiano, una selección fotográfica, y la valoración que hace hoy Vargas Llosa de la vida y obra de García Márquez.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

There are more valuable lessons about crafting a novel in this book than in any literature school." Juan Gabriel Vasquez.

In September of 1967, a young Gabriel García Márquez and Mario Vargas Llosa met in Lima to discuss Latin American literature. The first had already sold thousands of copies of One Hundred Years of Solitude. The second had just won the Rómulo Gallegos Award for The Green House.

Today both are universally considered two of the greatest examples of Spanish literature, but at that time they were two young people who were beginning their careers as novelists. In Dos soledades, two writers, two literary geniuses, two different ways of understanding literature, two somewhat contradictory temperaments, two different ways of narrating, are placed face-to-face. These were the times when the boom was brewing, when a name had not yet been coined for what we know today as "magical realism." In these exciting pages, the reader witnesses a conversation like no other.

This edition incorporates texts by Juan Gabriel Vásquez, Luis Rodríguez Pastor, José Miguel Oviedo, Abelardo Oquendo, Abelardo Sánchez León and Ricardo González Vigil, who recall, the majority as bystanders, that dialogue; and, in addition, two interviews with the Colombian writer, a selection of photographs, and Vargas Llosa's assessment of the life and work of García Márquez today.

NICE for soups!
Style: 34 Ounces, Size: 34 Count
We try to keep these in the house. They are REALLY nicely sized and work great for soups. They are AWESOME for soups and the only disposable plates I feel comfy using for large stews and such. Makes cleaning easy because I don't HAVE TO CLEAN! They are a bit more expensive than otherd disposable plates, but they are worth it. Pretty heavy duty plates that are thick and great for heavier foods. <3

Favorite compostable plates ever!
Style: 34 Ounces, Size: 34 Count, Style: 34 Ounces, Size: 34 Count
I’ve been using the Dixie Ultra Extra Large Compostable Paper Bowls, and I can honestly say I absolutely love them! They’re sturdy, deep, and hold generous portions, perfect for everything from hearty soups and pasta to big salads or even snacks for movie night. Unlike other paper bowls, they don’t get soggy or collapse, even with hot or liquid-heavy foods. Another huge plus for me is that they’re compostable, so I can enjoy the convenience of disposables without the guilt. They’re strong, reliable, and environmentally friendly, which is a rare combo! If you’re looking for durable, eco-conscious paper bowls that can handle anything you throw in them, these are a must-have. Highly recommend!

No more washing pozole/menudo bowls for me
Style: 34 Ounces, Size: 34 Count
Very sturdy for a paper plate. Used these for pozole at a party and saved me the hassle of washing plates. Good size, bigger than you think. When serving it does get hot so use something underneath so you don’t get burned.

Extra large paper bowls are sturdy, affordable, and make clean up a breeze.
Style: 34 Ounces, Size: 34 Count
I like the convenience of paper plates and these large 34 oz. bowls are perfect for microwave cooking. They are deep enough to handle soup, pasta, stuffing and vegetable sides with no problems and without any leaking, and are a good value for the price. They look stylish and make clean up less of a chore. You can't go wrong with Dixie paper products. They're sturdy, fun, and last through the meal.
