An epic tale which spans a hundred years of tumult and unrest in Latin America, One Hundred Years of Solitude tells the story of the Buendía family, whose patriarch built the once flourishing city of Macondo, now dilapidated and in ruins. The progressive decline of the city is mirrored by the increasing depravity which spreads within the family across seven generations, until a hurrican erases any trace of Macondo from this world.
