Love in the Time of Cholera
Breathtakingly beautiful prose. Rich and vivid language. Evocative imagery. I am in awe.The ending left me a bit disappointed, but by that time I was so in love with García Márquez's writing, he could get away with anything as far as I was concerned. He had become my own Fermina Daza.
I hope my other loves throughout the years - Leo, Émile, Arnold, William - will forgive this indiscretion. After all, a heart has more rooms than a whorehouse, and mine is no exception.
