El amor en los tiempos del colera (Edicion ilustrada) / Love in the Time of Cholera (Illustrated Edition)

Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Una edicion conmemorativa de El amor en los tiempos del colera, un gran clasico de Gabriel Garcia Marquez y una novela imprescindible de la literatura contemporanea.

Tras la espectacular edicion conmemorativa de Cien anos de soledad, la artista chilena Luisa Rivera vuelve a rendir homenaje a Garcia Marquez con una serie de ilustraciones ineditas que recrean el extraordinario universo del autor.

Era inevitable: el olor de las almendras amargas le recordaba siempre el destino de los amores contrariados.

Asi empieza una de las historias de amor mas maravillosas de la literatura universal. Un amor no correspondido durante medio siglo con un pueblecito portuario del Caribe como escenario. El Nobel colombiano nos presenta la magica relacion entre Fermina Daza y Florentino Ariza como una mezcla tropical de plantas y arcilla que el maestro moldea y con las que fantasea a su placer entre los territorios del mito y la leyenda. Los jugos, olores y sabores del tropico alimentan una prosa unica y original que se ha ganado el favor de millones de lectores en todo el mundo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A commemorative edition of Love in the Times of Cholera, an essential novel in contemporary literature. In this edition of this great classic, Chilean artist Luisa Rivera pays tribute to Gabriel Garcia Marquez with a series of unpublished illustrations that recreate the author’s extraordinary universe.

The International Bestseller and modern literary classic by Nobel Prize-winning author Gabriel Garcia Marquez.

In their youth, Florentino Ariza and Fermina Daza fall passionately in love. When Fermina eventually chooses to marry a wealthy, well-born doctor, Florentino is devastated, but he is a romantic. As he rises in his business career he whiles away the years in 622 affairs–yet he reserves his heart for Fermina. Her husband dies at last, and Florentino purposefully attends the funeral. Fifty years, nine months, and four days after he first declared his love for Fermina, he will do so again.
