I'm not usually one for posting celebrity photographs, but it was impossible to resist this photo of my favorite Nobel prize winning author, 80 year old Gabriel Garcia Marquez, proudly displaying a black eye:
"The feud between the Colombian writer Gabriel García Márquez and the Peruvian writer Mario Vargas Llosa, onetime best of friends, had all the elements of a literary classic: accusations of betrayal, jealousy and adultery, and a brutal encounter 31 years ago when things turned bloody."
