I'm glad that there's another glowing reviewer for One Hundred Years of Solitude, though, which I suppose is typical for this novel!

I read it in English but I would like to read it in Spanish actually since that is my mother tongue.

A friend mentioned it recently saying that she didn't like it but felt that the English translation maybe didn't do it justice. It is difficult to translate well from Spanish to English - I should know because I have tried! I swore back in 1990 that next time I would read it in Spanish though I have yet to do so. Maybe it's time to attempt that now!

Not sure of your stance on paper books but it's worth buying the actual book at a local store if you can't get it otherwise. It's a gorgeous book and worth every cent. Just a strong recommendation from an avid readerInsightsintobooks729 wrote: ↑18 Dec 2017, 15:37 I really want to read this book, but they don't have it on kindle and my local library doesn't have it.
