Chronicles Of A Death Foretold

Chronicles Of A Death Foretold - Gabriel Garcia Marquez

After reading One Hundred Years of Solitude a few years ago, this book was kind of interesting to read. Marquez has a very unique style of writing I have discovered, and a number of the characters from this book overlap into One Hundred Years of Solitude. All that said, it was a decent book. I wouldn't give it raving reviews, but I also wouldn't strike it down. It is only about 120 pages long, so if you are looking for a short read and flows pretty well and has an interesting plot through the entire novel, then take a shot at this book. If not, I think you may find it rather boring and leaving you with no fulfillment now that that you read it.


Next: In The Time Of The Butterflies - Julia Alvarez
