About the book One Hundred Years of Solitude
Gabriel García Márquez’s masterpiece recounts the rise and fall of the Buendía family across six generations, depicting the vicissitudes of life in Latin America over a century of colonialism, dictatorship and bloodshed. The family’s unity breaks over time and each member is condemned to a life of solitude.
