Gabriel Garcia Marquez's Most Political Book Tells The Sad Story Of General Simon Bolivar, The Person Who Tried To Bring A Whole Continent Together. Bolivar, Who Is Respected As A Hero In Six Latin American Countries And Called "The Liberator," Is A Big Deal In The Americas. But In Garcia Marquez's Version, He's Not Just Perfect – He Has Some Big Flaws Too.
The Story Is About Bolivar As He Goes On His Last Journey In 1830. He Travels Down The Magdalena River To The Sea, Visiting Places Where He Was Once Great And Feeling Sad About His Dream Of Uniting The Countries In The Americas. Even Though He's Been Kicked Out Of Power, Chased By People Trying To Kill Him, And Made Weak By A Serious Sickness, He's Still Strong And Full Of Energy. He Seems Like He's Still Alive Because He Wants To Be, The Same Way He Fought Hard And Loved Passionately In The Past.
