One hundred years of solitude

Garcia Marquez, Gabriel, 1927-20142014
Books
A rich and brilliant chronicle of life and death, One Hundred Years of Solitude tells the story of the mythical town of Macondo through the lives of seven generations of the doomed Buendia family. In the noble, ridiculous, beautiful, and tawdry story of the Buendias, one sees all of humanity, just as in the history, myths, growth, and decay of Macondo, one sees all of Latin America. Alternately reverential and comical, One Hundred Years of Solitude interweaves the political, personal, and spiritual, bringing a new consciousness to storytelling; this radiant work is no less than an accounting of the history of the human race.
