| Description: |
Latin America's most famous novel. An overnight sensation when it was first published in 1967, it has been translated into dozens of languages and remains a perennial favorite of readers around the world. Its strange, mesmerizing blend of the real and the fabulous introduced the world to Magical Realism and has inspired countless writers. |
| Synopsis: |
Collected here are some the novel's best critics to introduce high school students and undergraduates to one of Latin America's most famous novels. Introductory essays consider the novel's massive scope and celebrate Garcia Marquez's heightened appreciation for the strange and marvelous in reality. New essays provide a valuable introduction to the work as well as a discussion of the political, social and literary contexts. Natural and human-made disasters are the focus of one group of essays, while another group discusses translation, both literal and metaphoric. |
