Über diesen Titel

Audie Award Finalist, Classic, 2014

From the Nobel Prize-winning author of One Hundred Years of Solitude comes a masterly evocation of an unrequited passion so strong that it binds two people's lives together for more than half a century.

In their youth, Florentino Ariza and Fermina Daza fall passionately in love. When Fermina eventually chooses to marry a wealthy, well-born doctor, Florentino is devastated, but he is a romantic. As he rises in his business career, he whiles away the years in 622 affairs - yet he reserves his heart for Fermina. Her husband dies at last, and Florentino purposefully attends the funeral. Fifty years, nine months, and four days after he first declared his love for Fermina, he does so again.

With humorous sagacity and consummate craft, Gabriel García Márquez traces an exceptional half-century of unrequited love. Though it seems never to be conveniently contained, love flows through the novel in many wonderful guises - joyful, melancholy, enriching, and ever surprising.

Einfach wunderbar! Ich wusste schon natürlich, dass Marquez fesselnd ist, aber der Sprecher fand ich extra gut! Vielen Dank.

Die Ironie

Ein Fehler ist aufgetreten. Bitte versuche es in ein paar Minuten noch einmal.

the protagonist is a chronic liar, a pedophile, and obsessed for fifty years about a woman he hardly knew. he eventually wears her down and they form a couple in old age. it's hard to feel sympathy for this character, despite what it seems the author wants you to feel. that said, the prose is excellent, as Gabriel Garcia Marquez's always is.

problematic protagonist

to be honest quite boring. i was looking forward to the end. marquez is a good writer but the story did not convice me.

boring

I belong to the camp that dislikes this book a lot. The language depiction is good and very much from a eidetic memory owner. Every now and then a witted and sometimes pretentious quote of wisdom pops up. Márquez has written a huge and boasted narration of a rather simple story. It just contains a lot of unwanted details that doesn't promote the story at all.

But the biggest let-down is from our protagonist Florentino Ariza, even some may argue he is just a symbolic figure and should not be taken literall. He is a repugnant character and whose portrait by Javier Bardem in the film doesn't improve his image a single little bit.

All in all, wasted 15 hours by this story.

Good language, bad story and protagonist
