Some people say that "Love in the Time of Cholera" is the greatest love story of all. I would like to know why. It was not as easy to get into and it was hard to figure out what the story was and which character to follow. Nevertheless, I did eventually get into the story and the more I read the more I got into it. By the end, I was reading non-stop.
I'm not quite sure what to make of the story, but I do have to recognize that the writing is amazing and truly beautiful. Reading it in its original language, I've no idea how the poetic style of Gabriel Garcia Marquez's writing can be translated into other languages without losing its magical realism.
For those who are having a hard time to read it, I highly suggest you watch the movie as a guide, which was a good portrayal of the story, staying true to the book.
