Editorial Reviews

Review

?Exquisitamente desgarradora ... muy peculiar y brillantemente concebida ... como una novela detectivesca metafísica?. ?New York Times Book Review

?Esta investigación de un asesinato cometido hace años se convierte en una exploración alucinante, una búsqueda a tientas, en la oscuridad que se cierne alrededor de los propósitos humanos, de la verdad que contínuamente se nos escapa?. ?New York Review of Books

?Brillante ... Una pequeña obra maestra ... casi podemos percibir, oler y oír este rincón caribeño, tan olvidado del mundo, que nos brinda García Márquez?. ?San Francisco Chronicle

?Tan impresionante y difícil de olvidar como un intenso condimento; un examen a fondo del juego entre complicidad y fatalidad ... de ejecución exquisita?. ?Christian Science Monitor

?Un tour de force . . . En una prosa frugal y a la vez preñada de significado, García Márquez nos da no sólo una crónica sino el retrato de un pueblo y de su espíritu colectivo ... no sólo de una familia, sino de una cultura entera?. ?Washington Post Book World -- Review

5.0 out of 5 stars Simplemente Magica, July 6, 2004
By Sergio (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews
La prosa y la manera tan descriptiva que Gabriel Garcia tiene para escribir este libro es simplemente magica. Es como una historia detectivesca metafisica, cuando todo esta predicho para la muerte del personaje principal 'Santiago Nassar'. Ciertamente esta historia me mantuvo al borde del suspenso hasta el gran climax de la historia que detalladamente describe la muerte que causa que no solo los asesinos sean juzgados, pero todo el pueblo entero.

En verdad es una obra maestra.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, March 13, 2006
By Oscar Ferrer (Atlanta, GA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
{en}
Great book. It's the first time I read any of Garcia's works, but this one certainly got my attention. As another reviewer said on another version of the book, eventhough you know from the very beginning (from the title even) that Santiago is going to die, you can't help but keep reading to know more details about this fact. Very well done. Will be buying a different book from him and I'm quite certain I won't be disappointed.

{es}
Muy buen libro. Primera vez que leo una obra de Garcia Marquez, pero esta me llamó mucho la atención. Como alguien más dijo acerca del libro, aunque uno sabe desde el principio que Santiago va a morir (hasta por el título), uno no puede parar de leer para saber más detalles sobre lo que va a pasar. Me parece que está muy bien escrito. Voy a comprar otros de sus libros, ya que seguramente me vayan a gustar.

4.0 out of 5 stars bueno, April 20, 2006
A Kid's Review
no es un libro magifico ni malo. Yo prefiero Cien Anos de Soledad (tambien de Garcia Marquez). Pero, yo recomendo este libro.

It's not a great book, but not bad either. I prefered 100 Years of Solitude (also by Garia Marquez). But, I recommend this book.
