One Hundred Years of Solitude

Description

Now a Netflix original series!

“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. . . . 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.” –William Kennedy, National Observer

One of the most influential literary works of our time, One Hundred Years of Solitude remains a dazzling and original achievement by the masterful Gabriel Garc?a M?rquez, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Inventive, amusing, magnetic, sad and alive with unforgettable men and women–brimming with truth, compassion, and a lyrical magic that strikes the soul–this novel is a masterpiece in the art of fiction.
