BC By Patricia J. Pereira-Sethi [email protected] Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the Colombian novelist whose *One Hundred Years of Solitude* established him as a colossus of 20th-century literature, died on Maundy Thursday at his home in Mexico City. He was 87. Sadly, it brought closure to his own personal chronicle of a death foretold: a courageous combat with lymphatic cancer diagnosed fifteen years ago, followed by a darkening dementia. His intense and sensitive eyes, strikingly enhanced by bushy black eyebrows, no longer exploded with the fire of youth; the power of his pen had lost much of its punch. His autobiography, *Living to tell the Tale*, which he had planned as a three-part series, now stands incomplete at Volume One.
