Reviews"A rich, commodious novel whose narrative power is matched only by its generosity of vision." --The New York Times "A love story of astonishing power and delicious comedy . . . humane, richly comic, almost unbearably touching and altogether extraordinary.

  • I love it

    Bought this book because of one of my favorite movies "Serendipity" and I love it. Looks exactly like the picture, I know there are different book covers so I'm very happy I found the exact same as in the movie

  • Classic Sud-americana.

    The "product" is insufficiently well-made, although the book was apparently well-written....although I'd like to try it in the original Spanish. I loved the love; hated the cholera. Product life is indeterminate. It's a paperback and I live in hot and humid Florida (albeit amidst air-condtioning).
