Descripción editorial
One of the twentieth century’s enduring works, One Hundred Years of Solitude is a widely beloved and acclaimed novel known throughout the world and the ultimate achievement in a Nobel Prize–winning career.
The novel tells the story of the rise and fall of the mythical town of Macondo through the history of the Buendía family. Rich and brilliant, it is a chronicle of life, death, and the tragicomedy of humankind. In the beautiful, ridiculous, and tawdry story of the Buendía family, one sees all of humanity, just as in the history, myths, growth, and decay of Macondo, one sees all of Latin America.
Love and lust, war and revolution, riches and poverty, youth and senility, the variety of life, the endlessness of death, the search for peace and truth—these universal themes dominate the novel. Alternately reverential and comical, One Hundred Years of Solitude weaves the political, personal, and spiritual to bring a new consciousness to storytelling. Translated into dozens of languages, this stunning work is no less than an account of the history of the human race.

Increible
My personal favorite book of all time, so entertaining and profound
Weird book… kind of pointless
I started the book but quickly became so confused with the characters and the plot and it was just kind of a lacking story in my opinion. It’s hard to put down and come back to after a while because the names are so similar and random. The characters are fun tho, so I’d say read it if you really have nothing else to read.
Trancendant
As an indigenous person from a complicated family, this book speaks to me on a deep and archetypal level.
