By Gabriel García Márquez. A magical realist novel that tells the history of a family in a small secluded Columbian town. It starts with the founding of the settlement and follows the growing town and expanding family over several generations— through comedic, tragic and often cyclical circumstances. It’s absurd and confusing and a pretty fun read so far (half way through).

It took me four months to read this beautiful book. I’ve never read a book so dense in its storytelling yet so readable. It’s magical realism at its finest
