	Marquez One Hundred Years of Solitude
		In One Hundred Years of Solitude nothing ever turns out as people expect; everything surprises them; all of them fail; all are frustrated; few achieve communion with others for more than a fleeting moment, and the majority not at all.
		Hence the solitude, central theme (together with the quest) of Latin American history: it is their abandonment in an empty continent, a vast cultural vacuum, marooned thousands of miles away from their true home.
		Influences from outside (the gypsies) are sporadic, piecemeal, throughout the notional hundred years of the novel, which is the span from the Independence era to the early 1960's.

		The book is also about far more than 100 years of Latin American history.
		I have removed the word "Colombia" from this sentence: 'The novel chronicles a family's struggle, and the history of their town, Macondo, Colombia, for one hundred years.' There is never a mention of what country Macondo is in.

	Review of One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez \| Revish
		Initially, we are introduced to Col. Aureliano Buendia, and his thoughts as he faces the firing squad go back to a childhood memory, of the first time he saw ice (brought by a tribe of wandering gipsies), and thought it was a huge diamond.
		He ends up living the last years of his life in the house of the Buendia family, where he secrets himself in a tiny study, and writes a manuscript in the little letters of an unknown alphabet, so they look "like clothes drying on a washing line".
		It would be hard to write anything (I think) after reading 100 years of solitude without leaving traces of the influence of that experience.
