Review

"This is one of my favorite novels. It's so dense that no matter how many times I dip into it, I manage to find something startling that I have totally forgotten."

"...Oh boy--does he write well. [This] is a faithful and beautiful piece of work."

Reissue. (A New Line/Stone Village Pictures film, directed by Mike Newell, releasing Fall 2007, starring Javier Bardem, Benjamin Bratt, Giovanna Mezzogiorno, John Leguizamo, Hector Elizondo, & Fernanda Montenegro) (General Fiction)

Annotation

Gabriel Garcia Marquez's fanciful and lush novel is a romantic epic about love in its many guises, the clash of romanticism and rationalism, and the terrible agony of love sickness. At the apex of the novel's love triangle is Fermina Daza, who rejects her young lover Florentino Ariza, and marries the practical doctor Juvenal Urbino. While she lives a respectable and moral married life, Arize's passion for her is undiminished--despite his conquest of 622 other women. After 53 years, Urbino dies, and their love and life together begins again. The novel was adapted into a film in 2007 starring Javier Bardem as the love-smitten Ariza.

A novel about love, time, and an unusual triangular love affair. For 53 years, Florentino Ariza waits patiently for Fermina Daza, the woman who once loved him. While he waits, he becomes astonishingly successful with other women (he has 622 liaisons). She marries another man and lives a life of intense respectability. Finally, she is widowed, and their lives begin again.
