Love in the Time of Cholera

Description

First published in 1985, Love in the Time of Cholera is a masterwork by Nobel Prize-winning author Gabriel García Márquez. The novel tells the story of Florentino Ariza and Fermina Daza, whose youthful romance is cut short. Decades later, after Fermina’s long marriage to a prominent doctor ends, Florentino reappears—still passionately in love.Spanning more than fifty years, this lush and lyrical tale examines the complexities of love—romantic, obsessive, patient, and enduring—against the backdrop of a changing world. Rich with Márquez’s signature magical realism, vivid characters, and philosophical insight, the novel redefines what it means to love across time and circumstance.
