News of a Kidnapping (Nobel Prize Winner's)(Paperback)

What an amazing story! And to have it told by Garcia Marquez. This is the true story of a series of kidnappings that took place in Colombia a decade ago. Unfortunately, it seems that this story could be told again this year, with a new set of victims. Garcia Marquez tells the story from various of the kidnappers perspective, and he keeps it organized so the reader can follow along and understand what is happening to each of the victims, their families, etc. This is a must ready for anyone interested in Colombia, Latin America, or contemporary issues in general. I know I'll be re-reading it again.
