My favorite piece comes from my comadre Melissa Mora Hidalgo, best known for her writings about beer and Morrissey’s Latino fans.

“It was like a DIY version of ‘Finding Your Roots,’” Mora Hidalgo joked.

“Even though we grew up in the concrete suburbs east of East LA,” Mora Hidalgo writes, “the rolling hills and valley oaks and wine country roads up there feel like home to us because maybe, as Chumash descendants, it once was.”

The lifelong Liverpool football fan became the world’s oldest living man in April this year, when Juan Vicente Pérez Mora died at the age of 114.

The first part of the Netflix adaptation was directed by Laura Mora and Alex García López, and was filmed in Colombia, the home country of García Márquez, according to Netflix.
