El 28 de febrero de 1955 el destructor Caldas, que viajaba de Estados Unidos a Colombia, sufri??? un accidente. Con la finalidad de rescatar a los n???ufragos, las fuerzas norteamericanas del canal de Panam??? peinaron la zona cercana al siniestro. Despu???s de cuatro d???as de b???squeda no encontraron ning???n sobreviviente y se desisti??? de la b???squeda. Una semana m???s tarde apareci??? Luis Alejandro Velasco, quien despu???s de pasar en las aguas del Caribe diez d???as a la deriva, logr??? llegar a tierra. Con este libro, Gabriel Garc???a M???rquez se descubri??? a s??? mismo como un narrador. Sin embargo, la intenci???n primera era la de escribir un reportaje sobre un hombre que estuvo diez d???as a la deriva en una balsa mecida por el mar Caribe. El futuro premio Nobel de literatura y entonces joven reportero que era Garc???a M???rquez escuch??? el relato de los hechos de boca de su protagonista, y lo transform???, tal vez sin pretenderlo, en un prodigioso ejercicio literario, una narraci???n escueta y vigorosa donde late el pulso de un gran escritor. La publicaci???n por entregas del reportaje en El espectador de Bogot??? supuso un alboroto pol???tico considerable --se revelaba la existencia de contrabando ilegal en un buque de la Armada colombiana, lo que cost??? la vida de siete marineros y el naufragio, m???s afortunado, de Velasco-- y el exilio para su autor, que se vio abocado a una nueva vida. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The Story of a Shipwrecked Sailor is a work of non-fiction by Colombian writer Gabriel Garc???a M???rquez. The novel is about a shipwrecked sailor "Velasques" who struggles for ten days to reach the coast. In 1955, Garcia Marquez was working for El Espectador, a newspaper in Bogota, when in February of that year eight crew members of the Caldas, a Colombian destroyer, were washed overboard and disappeared. Ten days later one of them turned up, barely alive, on a deserted beach in northern Colombia. This book, which originally appeared as a series of newspaper articles, is Garcia Marquez's account of that sailor's ordeal.
