That being said the magical realism I did encounter was very well written. Who knows maybe I'll come back some day in the future but I kind of doubt it.

It’s just amazing to see both the degradation of the Buendias family and the perpetual cycle they all go through, even when they can act so differently from one another. To see what moves each Jose Arcadio or Aureliano to action and how that relates to the world’s progression and its regression. Each chapter is sooo dense with meaning, it’s hard to really write a review that doesn’t discuss what tidbits I gathered from the whole thing. I have to say, I REALLY loved that each chapter was about 20 pages long because it made it a lot easier to digest. There are obvious flaws within the book regarding prejudices and gratuitous scenes, but I think it all takes part in the punch in the mouth the ending gives us all.
