Book Description

May 31, 2001 9580461643 978-9580461647
Este libro excepcional reúne la novela corta que le otorga su título y otros seis relatos más, de los que todos menos uno pertenecen a la etapa de plena madurez del escritor. Fueron los años en los que Macondo le abrió las puertas del realismo mágico, donde la realidad se expresa mediante fórmulas mágicas y legendarias y los milagros se insertan en la vida cotidiana. La cándida Eréndira y su abuela desalmada personifican la inocencia y la maldad, el amor y su perversión, y el relato recuerda al mismo tiempo las gestas medievales y los cantos provenzales o trovadorescos, aunque, como siempre, inmersos en ese mundo denso y frutal del Caribe americano. Estas siete narraciones no son ejercicios para conservar un estilo, ni muchísimo menos, sino siete exploraciones en el mundo definitivo que el escritor había conquistado de una vez por todas.

5.0 out of 5 stars Una maravillosa y surreal historia de fe y amor, July 29, 2000
By 
Maria F. Vergara "Super Shopper" (Alexandria, VA United States) - See all my reviews

Este es uno de los mejores libros q he leido. Felicitaciones Gabo! En este libro se cuenta la historia de la Candida Erendira- una muchacha muy bella a la q se la ha jugado el destino al ser la unica compañia de su abuela. Al cabo de el tiempo, la abuela empieza a usar a la muchacha para obtener cosas para su beneficio. Pobre Erendira....como terminara este cuento? Como puede ella vivir esa vida? La respuesta esta en el espiritu de la muchacha, en las enormes ganas de vivir y la fe en un mejor futuro q nadie, ni su abuela podran arrancarle de su corazon.

Este libro fue hecho en pelicula hace ya unos años pero yo les recomiendo el libro. Leyendo el libro, pude ser parte del cuento cuando yo quisiera y habia veces en q no. Mucho de los detalles del libro son perdido en la pelicula.

4.0 out of 5 stars An intriguing story full of symbolism and creativity., February 1, 1999
Continuing with similar threads from his other works, Nobel Prize winning Garcia Marquez presents the story of a young girl obligated to prostitution by her heartless grandmother. Interprations could be taken down a number of roads. A bit depressing at times, but grabs the senses. Keeps interest up. I enjoyed it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for a rainy day!, July 2, 2001

This novel is very deppressing. But, it is a great read. You really get attached to Erendira and feel for her through what her grandmother does to her. I recommend it to anyone. It makes you feel thankful for the life you have.
