The Marquez version of Sleeping Beauty Only love can rekindle the enthusiasm of Chaomu's dead life!

Memories of My Melancholy Whores is Gabriel García Márquez’s first work of fiction in ten years, written at the height of his powers, the Spanish edition of which Ilan Stavans called, “Masterful. Erotic. As hypnotizing as it is disturbing” ( Los Angeles Times).
On the eve of his ninetieth birthday, our unnamed protagonist–an undistinguished journalist and lifelong bachelor–decides to give himself “the gift of a night of wild love with an adolescent virgin.”
The virgin, whom an old madam procures for him, is splendidly young, with the silent power of a sleeping beauty. The night of love blossoms into a transforming year. It is a year in which he relives, in a rush of memories, his lifetime of (paid-for) sexual adventures and experiences a revelation that brings him to the edge of dying–not of old age, but, at long last, of uncorrupted love.
Memories of My Melancholy Whores is a brilliant gem by the master storyteller.
From the Hardcover edition.

NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • The extraordinary rediscovered novel from the Nobel Prize–winning author of Love in the Time of Cholera and One Hundred Years of Solitude—a moving tale of female desire and abandon
 
Sitting alone beside the languorous blue waters of the lagoon, Ana Magdalena Bach contemplates the men at the hotel bar. She has been happily married for twenty-seven years and has no reason to escape the life she has made with her husband and children. And yet, every August, she travels by ferry here to the island where her mother is buried, and for one night takes a new lover.

Across sultry Caribbean evenings full of salsa and boleros, lotharios and conmen, Ana journeys further each year into the hinterland of her desire and the fear hidden in her heart.

Constantly surprising, joyously sensual, Until August is a profound meditation on freedom, regret, self-transformation, and the mysteries of love—an unexpected gift from one of the greatest writers the world has ever known.

Erendira accidentally burns down her grandmother's house and is forced to pay her back with the money she earns from prostitution. However, it seems Erendira has a more appropriate way of repaying her. The book's main themes are death, power, love and duty.

"...J'ai récrit toutes les nouvelles du début à la fin en huit mois fébriles au long desquels je n'ai eu nul besoin de me demander où finit la vie et où commence l'imagination... L'écriture est devenue alors si fluide que par moments je me sentais emporté par le simple plaisir de la narration, qui est peut-être l'état de l'homme qui s'apparente le plus à la lévitation. De plus, en travaillant toutes les nouvelles en même temps, en passant de l'une à l'autre avec la plus grande liberté, j'ai obtenu une vision panoramique qui m'a sauvé de la fatigue des débuts successifs et m'a aidé à traquer les redondances paresseuses et les contradictions fatales. Je crois avoir ainsi réussi le livre de nouvelles qui se rapproche le plus de celui que j'ai toujours voulu écrire... L'effort pour écrire une nouvelle est aussi intense que celui qu'exige la mise en route d'un roman. Car dans le premier paragraphe d'un roman il faut tout définir : structure, ton, rythme et parfois jusqu'au caractère d'un personnage. La suite appartient au plaisir d'écrire...".
