"A love story of astonishing power and delicious comedy . . . humane, richly comic, almost unbearably touching and altogether extraordinary." --Newsweek

"Brilliant, provocative...magical...splendid writing." --Chicago Tribune

"Beguiling, masterly storytelling.... García Márquez writes about love as saving grace, the force that makes life worthwhile." --Newsday

"A sumptuous book...[with] major themes of love, death, the torments of memory, the inexorability of old age." --The Washington Post Book World

"The greatest luxury, as in all of García Márquez's books, is the eerie, entirely convincing suspension of the laws of reality . . . the agelessness of the human story as told by one of this century's most evocative writers." --Anne Tyler, Chicago Sun-Times Book Week
