doomed by the narrative, the buendias live their lives with the undercurrent of tragedy — following each other's steps into their eventual ruin.
reading this book has been nothing short of a journey. spanning several months, i finally had the time to sit down and reach the end of the story. honestly, the time it took to read this book is poetic in and of itself.
i found it quite difficult to read as nuchbof its plot is in really long one-sentence-paragraphs that i usually have to reread to get it through my brain.
the prose is beautiful the story and family tree convulting and stressful but overall such an experience
