A review by bel45
Collected Stories by Gabriel García Márquez

a weird collection of stories. a few were really brilliant, some were confusing, some were boring. a bit like reading fairy tales-- even the stories I didn't really connect with felt like they very firmly already existed, and were being told rather than created, if that makes any sense. the one where the ocean smelled like roses is the one that's sticking most with me, though I also liked the eyes of the blue dog and there are no thieves in this town.
