Su questo libro

Recensione:

“The stories are rich and startling in their matter and confident and eloquent in their manner...They are the word cannot be avoided--magical.” (John Updike, The New Yorker)

“García Márquez has extraordinary strength and firmness of imagination and writes with the calmness of a man who knows exactly what wonders he can perform.” (Alfred Kazin, New York Times Book Review)

“It is the genius of García Márquez that fatalism and possibility somehow coexist, that dreams redeem, that there is laughter even in death.” (John Leonard, New York Times)
