Márquez grew up listening to family tales, eventually becoming a journalist. His fiction work intro-duced readers to magical realism, which combines more conventional storytelling with vivid fantasy. His novels Cien años de soledad (One Hundred Years of Solitude) and El amor en los tiempos del cólera (Love in the Time of Cholera) have drawn worldwide audiences, and he won a Nobel Prize in 1982. García Márquez died on April 17, 2014.

“How long will you wait

for love?”

“This shining and heartbreaking novel,” Thom-as Pynchon wrote in The New York Times Book Review, is one of those few rare works “that can even return our worn souls to us.”

“ Love in the Time of Cholera, like Autumn of the Patriarch before it, gives us something alto-gether new. With gorgeous, lucent writing, full of brilliant stops and starts, majestic whirls, thrilling endings, splendour and humour, the magician of our century takes on psychological realism.”-Mona Simpson

“It’s a well-crafted, handsome period piece. The intensity of an obsessional style, something that matches Florentino’s crazy single-mindedness.” -David Denby The New Yorker

“A love story of astonishing power.” - Newsweek

I n their youth, Flo-rentino Ariza and Fermina Daza fall

passionately in love. When Fermina eventu-ally chooses to marry a wealthy, well-born doctor, Florentino is devastated, but he is a romantic. As he rises in his business career he whiles away the years in 622 affairs--yet he reserves his heart for Fermina. Her husband dies at last, and Florenti-no purposefully attends the funeral. Fifty years, nine months, and four days after he first declared his love for Fermina, he will do so again.

Love in the Time of Cholera, set in an un-named Caribbean sea-port, Garcia Marquez’s extraordinary Love in the Time of Cholera (1988) relates one of literature’s most remarkable stories of unrequited love.

One Hundred Years of Solitude.

One Hundred Years of Solitude is the history of the isolated town of

Macondo and of the family who founds it, the Buendías. For years, the town has no contact with the outside world, except for gypsies who occasionally visit, peddling technologies like ice and telescopes. José Arcadio Buendía, is impul-sive and inquisitive. He remains a leader who is also deeply sol-itary, alienating himself from other men in his obsessive inves-tigations into mysterious mat-ters. His older child, José Arca-dio, inherits his vast physical strength and his impetuousness. His younger child, Aureliano, inherits his intense, enigmatic focus.

Gradually, the village loses its innocent, solitary state when it establishes contact with oth-er towns in the region. Civil wars begin, bringing violence and death to peaceful Macondo, which, previously, had experi-enced neither, and Aureliano becomes the leader of the Liberal rebels, achieving fame as Colonel Aureliano Buendía.

“It’s enough for me to be sure that you and I exist at this moment.”

“One Hundred Years of Solitude astonished me with its beauty, its depth, its variety, its humanity, its tone capable of rendering the true fantastic and the fan-tastic true, and its exuberance in the pleasures of storytelling.” -Molly McArdle Journal News

“Go. Stop wasting time here with me. No collection of words or thoughts that I ever string together in this life or the next could possibly be better for you than those in One Hundred Years of Solitude.” -Brian Mc-Gackin

“Márquez’s “magical realism” embraces the reality of Latin American experience - the military dicta-torships, the parody of modernisation that takes the form of McDonald’s and baseball, the brutal repres-sion of protest.” -Socialist Review
