A first printing of the first US edition, The hardcover is crisp and tight; a few of the leaves are pinched at the tips. The Dust Wrapper is bright, with slight toning at the top. Warmly INSCRIBED by the author in Spanish, to his friend Vance Morgan, a Virginia collector. Nobel Prize winner Gabriel García Márquez's novella, Chronicle of a Death Foretold, is a dark and profound novel about the codes that men impose on women, and women on themselves; the curious notions of honor that can dominate an isolated community; the irresistible impulse toward violence; and the psychology of mass complicity (from the dust wrapper). According to Jonathan Yardley in Washington Post Book World, Chronicle of a Death Foretold "is, in miniature, a virtuoso performance.". Inscribed by Author.

Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. First American Edition. A fantastic collection of sixteen first editions, all signed by Nobel Laureate Gabriel Garcia Marquez and all inscribed by him to the same recipient, Richard Mattie. A painstaking exercise in book collecting, undertaken by the resourceful Mattie over a period spanning from 1997 to 2005 with the assistance of a number of contacts in Mexico who had a close connection to the author by which the signatures were obtained. The collection is accompanied by a 1-inch thick folder, titled by Mattie "The Gabriel Garcia Marquez File 1997-2005", in which he has meticulously documented this nearly decade-long collecting venture, preserving every letter, fax, postal receipt, wire and emails (printed out in full). A remarkable collection. All sixteen books are first American editions, with the exception of Vivir para cotarla which is the true first edition in Spanish, the Columbian edition published by Grupo Editorial Norma, Bogota, 2002. Most books are Fine in Fine unclipped dust jackets, with several exceptions: Strange Pilgrims has slight cloth discoloration at the base of the book; No One Writes to the Colonel has a partial name erasure top of the front free endpaper and some top edge foxing, else Near Fine in a bright first issue DJ with a minuscule closed tear bottom of front panel and a small scratch to the front spine joint else fine; One Hundred Years of Solitude is Very Good with light wear to extremities, soiling to cloth, a contemporary former owner inscription written in Spanish and dated 1970 at the top of the half-title page, in a Very Good first issue dust jacket with the exclamation mark at the end of "Latin America" on the front flap, with some old tape-reside to the blindside, shallow edge wear and rubbing; the dust jacket of Evil Hour is price-clipped; faint staining to rear cloth of Love in the Time of Cholera though still Near fine. The Limited Editions Club (LEC) of One Hundred Years of Solitude is inscribed in English, "To Richard, from his Friend," and is signed and dated 1998; notable as Garcia Marquez rarely inscribed in English.
