I want to read 100 Years of Solitude in Spanish but I know it will be really difficult.

I was a little bit apprehensive when I heard of the book's title but all my assumptions were wrong when I began reading it. <br /><br />It's also thanks to my English Lit class that I got to know about Marquez's books. I'm looking forward to reading more of his works, especially One Hundred Years of Solitude.Josettehttp://www.booksloveme.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5345948308406299194.post-63223151905559840202014-04-19T00:43:26.022-04:002014-04-19T00:43:26.022-04:00I have read three of his books: Chronicle of a Dea...I have read three of his books: Chronicle of a Death Foretold, One Hundred Years of Solitude, and Of Love and Other Demons.

At first, I had no idea what I was reading, but I quickly grew to love Marquez's way with words and the way he creates worlds. His death means a giant is lost from the literary world.<br /><br />SarahGirl!Reporterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12396148243207091507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5345948308406299194.post-83468759147475352112014-04-18T14:56:53.060-04:002014-04-18T14:56:53.060-04:00Hi.

We read One Hundred Years of Solitude and I was an immediate fan of this amazing writer. Since that time I have read a few of his other novels and several short stories. I am constantly in awe of his ability to transport his reader. He is definitely a writer that will be greatly missed.
