Chronicle of a Death Foretold, first published in 1981, is a nonlinear, journalistic-style novel that blends elements of fiction and reportage. It tells the story of the murder of Santiago Nasar, a wealthy young man in a small Colombian town, whose death is foretold by nearly everyone, yet, inexplicably, no one prevents it. The novel is based on real events that García Márquez witnessed in his youth. Gabriel García Márquez was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1982 for his masterful storytelling, which combines the fantastic and the realistic to depict the life and conflicts of Latin America.
