This love story, translated from the Spanish, tells the story of Florentino Ariza who has loved Fermina Daza for 50 years. When her husband dies, his chance for happiness comes.
This book was addictive. Reading it in Atlanta over the christmas period it evoked pictures of old Colombia, and good old fashioned romance.
Gabriel is such a wizard of words, this book is worth a billion pictures!!
