Interpretation In Favor Of Books No One Writes to the Colonel and Other Stories
No One Writes to the Colonel is a prototypical nothing-happens short story in which the reader is swept up in the gorgeous writing and is more than willing to overlook the nothingness.It's the same kind of beautiful nothingness as the Grand Canyon. You walk up to the edge of this magnificent hole and marvel at the void and all its intricacies, the jagged edges, the visible layers of time, and the certainty that although all you see right now is inertia, you know that at one time something of great importance flowed through here.

One of those book that you can't wait to finish, but once you do, you feel empty and sad knowing that you'll never read anything like it.http://zimlicious.blogspot.com/Gabriel Garcia Marquez has been my favorite author for eleven years now. When I was a sophomore in high school, there was a book called Red Monday (English title: Chronicles of a Death Foretold) on our reading list. You know how they usually make you read physically big and heavy books in world literature class? Well, this one was a tiny book, and I suspected two things: 1) It was going to be such a tough book and we were all going to flunk the test; 2) It was such
This is so moving and from the gut, it will haunt you.

Gabriel García Márquez wrote "No One Writes to the Colonel" in the late 1950's, while he was living in Paris. This novella was published in 1961 by Harper Row.

Set in the fictional town of Macondo, like 100 Years of Solitude, however far less magical, both figuratively with the language and literally with the lack of magic realism. Overall, not bad but far from the 100 Years, which is still 6 stars out of 5 and one of my favourite books.
'Hope is a good thing,may be the best of things. And no good thing ever die.'This story is all about hope and whenever I think of hope,these are the lines that come into my head. Poverty.. It's a really horrible condition.. They might say that being poor in life is better than being poor in soul..
