About this title: Este libro excepcional reune la novela corta que le otorga su titulo y otros seis relatos mas, de los que todos menos uno pertenecen a la etapa de plena madurez del escritor.Fueron los anos en los que Macondo le abrio las puertas del realismo magico: la frase se hace mas larga y caudalosa, la realidad se expresa mediante formulas magicas y legendarias, los milagros se insertan en la vida cotidiana. La candida Erendira y su abuela desalmada personifican la inocencia y la maldad, el amor y su perversion, y el relato recuerda al mismo tiempo las gestas medievales y los cantos provenzales o ...

"This amazing book brings together the short novel that gives the book his name,and six more fantastic short stories. Each of them a masterpiece on their own,all of them world famous. It's hard for me to pick a favorite from this collection,or from any other by Garcia Marquez,he's just such a good and powerful writer,a magician. I really enjoy and love the ending for the story "Blacaman el bueno,vendedor de milagros",I thought I was reading something from "The Arabian Nights". And that's the feeling you get after reading it,the magical realism,the miracles,the legends that come alive each time Marquez takes a pen.Even the titles are awesome: "Un senor muy viejo con unas alas enormes", "El ahogado mas hermoso del mundo", "Muerte constante mas alla del amor","El mar del tiempo perdido", "El ultimo viaje del buque fantasma". A classic of world literature!"
"I particularly enjoy García Márquez in short segments, which is why I find all of his short stories to be absolutely amazing...particularly if one has lived in or visited South America."
