5.0 out of 5 stars El realismo fantastico de Hispanoamerica, August 4, 1998
By A Customer
El otono del patriarca es una novela clave en dos aspectos: representa un desafio intelectual por su osada sintaxis y atrevida estructura gramatical, en el que el pasado y el presente se mezclan continuamente conforme avanza el relato, apenas separado por comas y ocasionales puntos seguidos. El segundo aspecto es la extraordinaria descripción que el autor realiza de los acontecimientos de la vida de una patria sin nombre gobernada desde los tiempos inmemoriales del vomito negro por un dictador anonimo, encarnacion de todos los generales mesianicos que ha padecido Latinoamerica, victima del culto a la personalidad.

El relato nos transporta en forma exquisita desde los albores de este imperio personal hasta la decadencia, en un ir y venir temporal, salpicado de relatos mitológicos, como el de Manuela Sanchez, una enigmatica belleza que surgio en el barrio de las peleas de perros, y quizas el unico ser de este mundo que burlo el poder omnipotente de este legendario gener! al. Una ultima sugerencia: lealo con un diccionario a mano.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mother Of Stream of Consciousness Latin American Novels, August 21, 1998
By 
manningT@aol.com (Rockville Maryland, USA) - See all my reviews
Garcia-Marquez dictator combines within himself, the best and the worst, of the human being when invested with absolute power: from charity to corruption, benevolence to rape, fear of God to extreme cruelty. The (sparse) punctuation follows an almost strict fitting of the Poisson statistical distribution, page by page, and then amongst chapters, constituting this into both a textbook in literature and statistics. To some of us the most masterful novel of the Master Novelist of Meridian America.
