“Living to Tell the Tale” is the first volume of the autobiography of Gabriel García Márquez.
The book was published in Spanish in 2002, .Living to Tell the Tale tells the story of García Márquez' life from the year he was born in Aracataca, and the mid-1950s, when he experimented in journalism to pay his bills and finish his first novel, “Leaf Storm”. The book ends with his proposal to his wife. It focuses heavily on García Márquez' family, schooling, and early career as a journalist and as short story writer, and includes references to numerous real-life events that ended up in his novels in one form or another, including the “Banana massacre” that appears prominently in “One Hundred Years of Solitude” and the friend of his whose life and his death were the model for “Chronicle of a Death Foretold.”

"Me siento como si yo fuera el ladrón" —( "I feel like I am the Thief")
