One Hundred Years of Solitude, Gabriel García Márquez

 

One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez is another book by a non-English author which I found on a list of great books by non-English writers.  This book was probably instrumental in the author winning the Nobel Prize for Literature.

Review:

I am no literary critic.  I found this book to be rambling and boring.  The book covers a long series of lives in a family with many detailed lives, but the book seems disjoint without a common theme running through it.  It was an unpleasant read as the timeline moved backwards and forwards in small jumps.  I dunno, I simply found the book boring.
