deborahisreading 's review for:

Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel García Márquez
4.0

A passionate love story that spans more than five decades. Love, longing, secrets and desires surround the tangled relationship between Fermina Daza, Juvenal Urbino, and Florentino Ariza, in a Colombia where progress into the 1900s is slow but sometimes humorous and beautiful. The translator deserves as much praise as the author for bringing the book from Spanish to English.
