Customer Reviews

An excellent way to start on Garcia Marquez and Macondo
A wonderfull collection of stories with the best of Garcia Marquez' magical realism, which introduces the reader to life in Macondo and the author's writting style. I recommend you read this book before trying 100 years of solitude because the short stories are much simpler but just as amusing. Once you start reading it you won't be able to stop.
