墨西哥作家卡洛斯.富恩特斯去世，享年83岁。Will Grant在墨西哥城回顾他的一生。

A contemporary of other great Latin American writers, such as Gabriel Garcia Marquez and fellow Mexican Octavio Paz, Carlos Fuentes was a prolific novelist and essayist. He gained international acclaim for his works, The Death of Artemio Cruz in 1962, and more recently The Eagle's Throne, which imagined a world in which the United States had knocked out all of Mexico's telecommunications. He was never awarded the Nobel Prize for literature, but was bestowed with practically every other literary award in the Spanish-speaking world.
