Cien Años de Soledad
by
Gabriel García Márquez
This is one of
my all-time favourites and I very specially recommend it to all
Spanish Word-A-Day readers!
I have read it
twice now. I promise: you won't stop reading until the very last page...
and still then you will want to continue! It was like that for me.
Amazon rating:
 Best Book
Ever.
Amazon's reviews:
I'm writing this review in English because my Spanish is bad. I picked
this book up for many reasons. But there's 2 main reasons why I picked it
up in Spanish: It's the language in which it was written and I wanted to
brush up on my spanish. Little did I know however, that I was reading the
BEST book that I have ever read. One thing people gotta understand about
this book is that it was written a long time ago... ~40years ago?
Something like that. And so, a lot of the ideas presented in the book have
been duplicated since then. And if you know them, it might subtract from
the magic the book provides.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez can't possibly be human, this is a true masterpiece!
I highly recommend for people that know a little spanish or more, to read
this book as there are some words and sentences that may be lost in
translation.
