La crónica de un secuestro real magistralmente retratado por Gabriel García Márquez. "Era, en efecto, el automóvil de Maruja. Había transcurrido por lo menos media hora desde el secuestro, y sólo quedaban los rastros: el cristal del lado del chofer destruido por un balazo, la mancha de sangre y el granizo del vidrio en el asiento, y la sombra húmeda en el asfalto, de donde acababan de llevarse al chofer todavía con vida.

S-ar putea ca trecerea noastră pe pământ să capete altă forţă când, în strădania naturală spre fericire, suntem puși în situaţia de a compune un destin nu cu bunăstarea, răsfăţul și trufia marilor popoare, ci cu suferinţa celor insignifiante."
