“García Márquez’s fictional universe has the same staggeringly gratifying density and texture as Proust’s Faubourg Saint-Germain and Joyce’s Dublin….Arguably the best of the Latin Americans.”–Martin Kaplan, The New Republic
“It is the genius of the mature García Márquez that fatalism and possibility somehow coexist, that dreams redeem, that there is laughter even in death.’–John Leonard, New York Times
