García Márquez, Hugo Chávez, la imaginería, el realismo mágico y cuanta superstición hay

Sobre el terrible tema Venezuela... copio esta frase que expresa lo que también pienso:

Garcia Marquez, indeed. During the fifteen years in which he patiently plotted his revolutionary conspiracy, forging his mystical links between his own genealogy and the nation's heroes, Hugo Chavez made himself into a kind of creature of magical realism. He would be the redemption, the climax, the supreme text prophesied by other texts, of the Sacred Writ of Venezuelan history.

Lo tomé del artículo The Shah of Venezuela, que me recomendó mi amigo Fernando (Oriente Miedo), a quien le doy las muchas gracias.
