No One Writes to the Colonel (Spanish: El coronel no tiene quien le escriba) is a novella written by the Colombian writer Gabriel García Márquez. It also gives its name to a short story collection. García Márquez considered it his best book, saying that he had to write One Hundred Years of Solitude so that people would read No One Writes to the Colonel.[1]

The novella was written between 1956 and 1957 while the author was living in Paris in the Hotel des Trois Colleges[2] and was first published in 1961.[3]
