Reviews
"You emerge from this marvelous novel as if from a dream, the mind on fire. . . . With a single bound, Gabriel García Márquez leaps onto the stage with Günter Grass and Vladimir Nabokov, his appetite as enormous as his imagination, his fatalism greater than either. Dazzling." -- John Leonard, New York Times "One Hundred Years of Solitude is the first piece of literature since the Book of Genesis that should be required reading for the entire human race. It takes up not long after Genesis left off and carries through to the air age, reporting on everything that happened in between with more lucidity, wit, wisdom, and poetry that is expected from 100 years of novelists, let alone one man. . . . García Márquez has done nothing less than to create in the reader a sense of all that is profound, meaningful, and meaningless in life." -- William Kennedy, National Observer "This extraordinary novel obliterates the family tree in a prose jungle of overwhelming magnificence. . . . You have the sense of living along with the Buendías (and the rest), in them, through them, and in spite of them, in all their loves, madnesses and wars, their allegiances, compromises, dreams and deaths. . . . Like the jungle itself, this novel comes back again and again, fecund, savage and irresistible." -- Paul West, Washington Post "At 50 years old, García Márquez's masterpiece is as important as ever. . . To experience a towering work like One Hundred Years of Solitude is to be reminded of the humility we should all feel when trying to assert what is true and what is false." -- LitHub "An irresistible work of storytelling, mixing the magic of the fairy tale, the realistic detail of the domestic novel and the breadth of the family saga." -- New York Times "No other writer in our time has operated on so vast a scale. None has approached his literary achievement. . . . [García Márquez is] the most important writer of the second half of the twentieth century in any language." -- The Nation "One Hundred Years of Solitude is substantive and substantial, and its prose precise for the simple reason that its sentences are too exquisite to be inessential. It is a novel on which is bestowed the laurels usually awarded to great works of frugal prose. Yet its genius is in the operatic telling." -- The Independent "One Hundred Years of Solitude offers plenty of reflections on loneliness and the passing of time. It can also be seen as a caustic commentary on the evils of war, or a warm appreciation of familial bonds. García Márquez has urgent things to say that still feel close to home, 50 years after the book was first published." -- The Guardian "One of the seminal works of 20th century Latin American fiction, it is a classic." -- Variety "A fabulous creation of magic, and metaphor, and myth. . . . To depict a world so fabulous, so exotic, so extravagant in its comic and tragic effects and yet so palpably real is a magnificent achievement." -- William McPherson, Washington Post "Unofficially, it's everybody's favorite work of world literature and the novel that, more than any other since World War II, has inspired novelists of our time--from Toni Morrison to Salman Rushdie to Junot Díaz. . . . Sexy, entertaining, experimental, politically radical, and wildly popular all at once." -- Vanity Fair "The greatest novel in any language of the last fifty years." -- Salman Rushdie One of the Landmarks of Modern Literature -- New York Public Library "[This novel] is very special. . . . An expansive legend of a town and family, a political parable, an instrument of rare magic that performs astonishing miracles of transformation. It is a comic masterpiece. It is intelligent. It is slippery with the juice of life." -- Newsweek, Fecund, savage, irresistible. . . . In all their loves, madness, and wars, their alliances, compromises, dreams and deaths...the characters rear up large and rippling with life against the green pressure of nature itself., "One Hundred Years of Solitude is the first piece of literature since the Book of Genesis that should be required reading for the entire human race. It takes up not long after Genesis left off and carries through to the air age, reporting on everything that happened in between with more lucidity, wit, wisdom, and poetry that is expected from 100 years of novelists, let alone one man. . . .

Synopsis
One of the twentieth century's most beloved and acclaimed novels, available in a special limited slip-cased edition. In 1967, One Hundred Years of Solitude launched Gabriel Garc a M rquez to international fame, and cemented his reputation as a literary legend. A central figure in the Latin Boom, Garc a M rquez was the most celebrated practitioner of the literary style that has become known as magic realism, and in 1982, received the highest literary achievement: the Nobel Prize for Literature. Chilean poet and Nobel Laureate Pablo Neruda called One Hundred Years of Solitude , "the greatest revelation in the Spanish language since Don Quixote of Cervantes." In the New York Times legendary critic John Leonard proclaimed, "with a single bound, Gabriel Garc a M rquez leaps onto the stage with G nter Grass and Vladimir Nabokov." And writer William Kennedy has hailed Garc a M rquez's masterpiece as, "the first piece of literature since the Book of Genesis that should be required reading for the entire human race. Mr. Garc a M rquez has done nothing less than to create in the reader a sense of all that is profound, meaningful, and meaningless in life." Over four decades after its publication, One Hundred Years of Solitude remains one of the most beloved and venerated books in world literature. A rich and brilliant chronicle of life and death, it tells the story of the mythical town of Macondo through the lives of seven generations of the doomed Buend a family. In the noble, ridiculous, beautiful, and tawdry story of the Buend as, 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. This special edition is a re-designed jacketed hardcover featuring colored endpapers in a beautiful, elegant slipcase., "One Hundred Years of Solitude is the first piece of literature since the Book of Genesis that should be required reading for the entire human race....Mr. Garcia Marquez has done nothing less than to create in the reader a sense of all that is profound, meaningful, and meaningless in life." --William Kennedy, New York Times Book Review "More lucidity, wit, wisdom, and poetry than is expected from 100 years of novelists, let alone one man." --Washington Post One of the twentieth century's most beloved and acclaimed novels, available in a special limited slip-cased edition.
