Cien
Años de Soledad
by Gabriel García Márquez
El
amor en los tiempos del cólera es una
novela que el premio Nobel colombiano Gabriel
García Márquez publicó
en 1985. La novela narra la vida de tres personajes
a principios del siglo XX en una ciudad costera
que, por las descripciones, parece ser Cartagena
de Indias. Esta es una historia de amor con
una prosa impecable, al mejor estilo del Nobel.
One
Hundred Years of Solitude (Spanish: Cien años
de soledad) is a novel by Nobel Prize winning
Colombian author Gabriel García Márquez
that was first published in Spanish in 1967.
The book is considered García Márquez's
masterpiece, metaphorically encompassing the
history of Colombia or Latin America. The
novel chronicles a family's struggle, and
the history of their fictional town, Macondo,
for one hundred years. García Márquez
acknowledges in his autobiography Living to
Tell the Tale that Macondo was based on the
towns where he spent his childhood. Like many
other novels by Gabriel García Márquez,
One Hundred Years of Solitude crosses genres,
combining elements of history, magical realism,
and pure fiction.

Cronica
de una muerte anunciada
by GABRIEL GARCIA MARQUEZ
En
Crónica de una Muerte Anunciada, de
Grabriel García Marquez, un hombre
regresa al pueblo donde ocurrió un
asesinato desconcertante 27 años atrás,
con la determinación de descubrir la
verdad. Todos parecen estar de acuerdo en
que Bayardo San Román, sólo
unas horas después de su matrimonio
con la bella Angela Vicario, la devuelve por
deshonrada a la casa paterna. La atribulada
familia fuerza a la novia a revelar el nombre
de su primer amante; y los hermanos gemelos
de ella anuncian su intención de matar
a Santiago Nasar por haber deshonrado a su
hermana. Sin
embargo, si todos sabían que se iba
a cometer un asesinato, ¿por qué
nadie trató de impedirlo? Cuanto más
se sabe de este asunto, menos se comprende,
y cuando la historia al fin se precipita a
su inesperada conclusión, una sociedad
entera —no sólo un par de asesinos—
está siendo enjuiciada.
Chronicle
of a Death Foretold (original Spanish title:
Crónica de una muerte anunciada) is
a novella by Gabriel García Márquez,
published in 1981. It tells, in the form of
a pseudo-journalistic reconstruction, the
story of the murder of Santiago Nasar by the
two Vicario brothers. Chronicle of a Death
Foretold exhibits many of the aspects of a
novel written in the magic realist style.
For example, the novel makes oblique references
to God and clairvoyance. Additionally, it
has the magic realism aspect of a warped timeline.

El
amor en los tiempos del cólera
by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Con
sagacidad humorística y depurado estilo,
García Márquez traza en El Amor
en los Tiempos del Colera, la historia excepcional
de un amor que no ha sido correspondido por
medio siglo. Aunque nunca parece estar propiamente
contenido, el amor fluye a través de
la novela de mil maneras –alegre, melancólico,
enriquecedor, siempre sorprendente.
Love
in the Time of Cholera (Spanish: ''El amor
en los tiempos del cólera'', 1985)
is a novel by Gabriel García Márquez
about a fifty-year love triangle between Fermina
Daza, Florentino Ariza and Doctor Juvenal
Urbino set in the late 19th century and the
first decades of the 20th century. The novel,
a tale of unrequited love, explores the idea
that suffering for love is a kind of nobility.
One way equates the ‘time of cholera’
with the time of romantic love, thus suggesting
that love in this novel is a disease that
plagues the body. The title may also be a
metaphor for the disease of social irresponsibility.
