From the Nobel Prize winning novelist, this epic tale of seven generations of the Buendia family spans a hundred years of Latin American history. The brilliant, bestselling, landmark novel chronicles the irreconcilable conflict between the desire for solitude and the need for love—in rich, imaginative prose that has come to define an entire genre known as "magical realism." One of the most significant works in the Spanish literary canon, Pablo Neruda called it "The greatest revelation in the Spanish language since Don Quixote."
