This book haven't translated into my native language. When I started reading it I thought why, but as I dive in it became clear that this book do not much our social norms. Nevertheless, I enjoyed Gabriel Garcia Marquez's "Love in Time of Cholera"
I would love to hear from someone who liked this book because I feel like I must have missed something. I didn't like it AT ALL, and it has received such acclaim, not to mention a Nobel prize. Maybe things are lost in translation, maybe my expectations were too high as I loved 100 Years of Solitude. I found it rambling. I would read a couple pages and find I had been thinking about something else for nearly the entire time. The characters became boring and overall it just didn't do it for me.
