"The greatest revelation in the Spanish language since "Don Quixote" of Cervantes" - Pablo Neruda
"My primary impression, in the act of rereading One Hundred Years of Solitude, is a kind of aesthetic battle fatigue, since every page is rammed full of life beyond the capacity of any single reader to absorb... There are no wasted sentences, no mere transitions, in this novel, and you must notice everything at the moment you read it." - Harold Bloom, "Bloom's Modern Critical Interpretations: One Hundred Years of Solitude" (Philadelphia, Chelsea House Publishers, 2003)
