* Description: Generalen i sin labyrint er historien om den legendariske søramerikanske frihetshelten Simón Bolívars siste dager. Hans kongstanke var å skape den største republikk i verden, fra Rio Grande til Patagonia. Da Bolívar forlot Sante Fe de Bogotá i mai 1830, lå hans drøm i ruiner, og selv var han en syk, ensom og bitter mann - også av skikkelse en fremtoning som hadde lite til felles med det idealiserte bilde av ham som er overlevert gjennom portretter og rytterstatuer.

Hvor hadde han tenkt seg hen da han fraskrev seg makten og la ut på det som skulle bli hans siste ferd? Han visste det knapt selv. I alle fall endte det med døden i desember 1830 - ved Det karibiske hav. Men like til siste dag klamret han seg til visjonen om den store republikk.

Gabriel García Márquez' frodige beretning myldrer av episoder som kan være hendt og gir et betagende bilde av et menneske som var elsket og tiljublet av millioner, men som endte sitt liv i fornedrelse.
* Norwegian bokmål

Mathias | 28 comments Is there a reason this hasn't been added yet? As far as I can tell, I've followed every guideline for requests.

Emmy de Reus (nyneve) | 19915 comments You forgot to include a link to book page which includes the cover on a NON-BOOKSELLER site, such as a publisher site, an author site, etc. If linking to a site such as Imgur, Dropbox, etc. please state the original source of the image. No B&N or other bookseller links can be used as sources for covers or other book data, with the exception of Amazon and its subsidiaries.

For more details about what sources we can use for covers and other book data, please see: https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...

Alternatively, if you have the book, we can use a scan/photo of your copy for the cover and/or the page with the publication information you can upload a scan/photo of your own to this group's photos section https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/... (click [add more photos]), then copy the link here and a librarian can add it. Make sure you state the source of the photo in the text.

Mathias | 28 comments Huh, I could have sworn I'd checked several times before making this request. Awesome, thanks for the help! :)

I'll make sure to supply a cover with any future requests, then :)
