LITERARY FICTION
One Hundred Years of Solitude
A century of the Buendía family unfolds in the fictional town of Macondo, where the miraculous and the mundane are equally matter-of-fact. The novel that defined magical realism for the world.
Allo's take
Allo keeps it because the prose makes ordinary sentences hold extraordinary weight without straining. The chapter where insomnia erases the names of things is worth the whole book.As an Amazon Associate, byallo earns from qualifying purchases.
