man, these hispanic writers sure came up with some pretty macabre, surreal-ass shit. This guy Gabriel Garcia Marquez kinda makes me uncomfortable.

gabriel garcia marquez is one of my favorite authors, but i am kind of in love with magical realism. besides making you feel uncomfortable, do you like his writing at all?

this totally caught me off guard, since i wrote that like 2 years ago - but yes since then i've read more and i love his work. I think i wrote that in the first spanish lit class i had and was surprised at all the existential-nihilist-etc etc schools of thought that came up in all the writing.

but no, i love his work, seriously.

now that we're lj friends tho, you can see that -

where in portland are you from? (me too, i donno if i wrote that in my profile thing)

peace,
andrew
