A short, impactful read. The Colonel’s unwavering hope is both inspiring and heartbreaking. GarcÃa Márquez’s writing is beautiful but the story is very depressing.
Yash Mahajan –
GarcÃa Márquez at his finest. The prose is exquisite, and the story is deeply moving. A classic for a reason. A little bit too descriptive.
