Florentino Ariza has never forgotten his first love. He has waited nearly a lifetime in silence since his beloved Fermina married another man. No woman can replace her in his heart. But now her husband is dead. Finally - after fifty-one years, nine months and four days - Florentino has another chance to declare his eternal passion and win her back.

词汇简单，句法绵密，中文翻译很难抵达那种感觉吧。
If you are in love with someone, do not read it.
两千年前罗马人曾想借咒语和铁皮调动黑魔法 而如今 人世间已经确凿地有了至少一本魔法书
"For women there were only two ages: the age for marrying, which did not go past twenty-two, and the age for being eternal spinsters: the ones left behind."
i surprised myself by really not being very fond of this book...
Love, if it existed, was something separate: another life.
语言贫瘠的我只会说：马尔克斯好会写…
读了挺长一段时间，断断续续在周末的家里，曾在小区的公园里，曾在出差的途中，也曾在曼谷的酒店房间里。这是一本我不仅是看完而是读完的小说。这里的语言逻辑缜密，人生的细节如同意识一般娓娓道来，爱是其中的主旋律。这是真正的小说，真正的大师作品，我觉得甚至胜过了百年孤独。结尾尤其无以伦比，令人回味深长。
life is base, vile, encumbered; but love is miraculous.
Oh that devastating love, or was it merely an illusional obsession fueled by passion and hope? For mundaneness knows true love.
