my opinion about the book "cien años de soledad":

Well, when I rode this book was when I was a child and it was the first book of Gabriel Garcia Marquez that I rode... when I rode it, it was very difficult for me because I had a very extensive vocabulary. Well, now I have read many of Gabriel Garcia's novels and I had to read again this book, I finished to read 2 weeks ago and discusses the history of the "buendia" and I love this book because it is very different from the others and create events least expected.
I love the novels of Gabriel Garcia Marquez and above all "cien años de soledad" for his fluency and fertile imagination that the author is describing exactly each character mainly to overall aureliano buendia ... Since we last told all his life to understand the context of the novel
