One Hundred Years of Solitude follows one family through the creation and fall of a mythical town named Macondo. As the times change, so do generations, and readers can witness war, loss, and ultimately solitude from the lense of a unique household.
I loved the depiction of history repeating itself, an all too familiar aspect of the modern times. I think that’s what makes this novel so popular well past its publication, even in a community so different from ours, we can see parts of our struggles in them. Wether in the strong Ursula, the curious Aureliano Buendia, or the isolation of the colonel, their experiences live on.
I will say: Please check trigger warnings. This will not be a book for everyone.
