"Unveiling Gabriel García Márquez's Controversial Last Novel: A Decade After His Death"

Nobel laureate Gabriel García Márquez's final novel, "Until August," which he had instructed his sons to never publish due to his struggles with dementia, is being released posthumously against his wishes on what would have been his 97th birthday. The novel, exploring themes of love, fidelity, sexuality, and aging, is a departure from García Márquez's usual magic realism genre and is the second in a series of short novels he had planned. While some, like fellow Nobel laureate Salman Rushdie, express concerns about the decision to publish, García Márquez's sons believe they are speaking for their father, who had given them permission to make such decisions after his death.
