Quite good, though not one of Marquez's best, particularly because of the small scope and rushed ending. Still, the style makes it a thoroughly good read.

Its a book about a 90 year old man. A man with flaws. A man who has never fallen in love. A man who rediscovers life after his ninetieth birthday. Amazing words. Great book. Lovely quotes.
Will i re-read? I might.
Do i recommend? Yes, to all the souls.

Pela primeira vez, fiquei reticente com uma obra do Gabo. Ainda que perceba as temáticas da velhice e do amor, os conceitos da prostituição, da virgindade e do excesso de excitação provocaram-me um certo desconforto - talvez seja precisamente essa a intenção.
