I have read just about everything he has written One hundred years of solitude is one of my favorite books. I just finished re reading it and found that 20 years between readings changes the book completely, I as I am different.

the books are better in spanish, or at least one hundred years of solitude and love in the time of cholera are.
the translations are excellent, but they still make less sense somehow.
or that could just be me...
the story tells about a cycle... do you think it would have ended differently? i mean, if aureliano and amaranta ursula were not too wrapped up with each other and tried to revive macondo from deterioration, let's say, would it make any difference at all? or does gabo marquez just intend to imply the inevitability of cycles..?
i don't feel like showing off
