Fifty-one years, nine months and four days have passed since Fermina Daza rebuffed hopeless romantic Florentino Ariza's impassioned advances and married Dr Juvenal Urbino instead. During that half-century, Flornetino has fallen into the arms of many delighted women, but has loved none but Fermina. Having sworn his eternal love to her, he lives for the day when he can court her again. When Fermina's husband is killed trying to retrieve his pet parrot from a mango tree, Florentino seizes his chance to declare his enduring love. But can young love find new life in the twilight of their lives?

Den fabulerende, fantastiske krønike om den ensomt beliggende landsby Macondo og dens store, farverige Buendiaslægt. Det er ægteparret José og Ursula Buendia, fætter og kusine, som engang i 1800-tallets begyndelse grundlægger den lille flække, som Márquez befolker med en broget skare af lidenskabelige kvinder, eventyrlystne mænd, pjaltede sigøjnere og hvileløse ånder. Trods frygten for indavl drages slægtens mænd på forunderlig vis generation efter generation mod slægtens kvinder alt imens moderne landvindinger på godt og ondt trænger sig på udefra. Men Buendia-familien er underlagt den skæbne, som bogens titel hentyder til, menneskets evige ensomhed, og dens æra skal slutte, når gamle forudsigelser og spådomme nedskrevet på sanskrit engang bliver tydet. 100 års ensomhed er sydamerikansk verdenslitteratur, når det er bedst, og et absolut hovedværk i genren magisk realisme. Under magien og fablen finder man Márquez’ indignation over social uretfærdighed og hans litterære protest mod de politiske forhold. Pressen skriver: »100 års ensomhed« rummer en strøm af sanselighed, humor og vidtfavnende kreativitet. Man fornemmer duften af oregano og overvældes af fantasirigdommen.« ***** – Eva Pohl, Berlingske
