Sinopse

Commemorative hardcover edition of Gabriel García Márquez's major work, celebrating its 50th anniversary. A seminal novel in the history of literature, One Hundred Years of Solitude presents one of the most fascinating literary adventures of the 20th century. Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, it's a work we should all have on our bookshelves.

In One Hundred Years of Solitude , one of the greatest classics of literature, the prestigious author narrates the incredible and sad story of the Buendías—the lineage of loners who will not be given "a second chance on earth"—and introduces the wonderful world of the fictional Macondo, where the novel is set. It is there that we follow several generations of this family, as well as the rise and fall of the village. Beyond the technical devices and literary influences that overflow from the book, we also see within its pages what many consider a veritable encyclopedia of the imagination, in a style that consecrated the Colombian as one of the greatest authors of the 20th century.

In no other book has García Márquez strived so hard to capture the tone with which his maternal grandmother recounted the most fantastical episodes without altering a single facial feature. Thus, while the incredible and sad story of the Buendías can be understood as a veritable encyclopedia of the imaginary, it is narrated in such a way that it all seems part of the most banal of realities.

Gabo, nicknamed Gabriel García Márquez, used to say that every great writer is always writing the same book. "And what would yours be?" he was asked. "The Book of Solitude," was the answer. Despite this, he didn't consider One Hundred Years his best work (he much enjoyed The Autumn of the Patriarch ). What does it matter? The truth is that no other novel so completely encapsulates the formidable talent of this teller of stories of solitude—stories that have spread and will continue to spread for well over a hundred years throughout the Macondos of the world.

One Hundred Years of Solitude is a grand and timeless work, from which it is possible to construct several parallels with our own existence.
