"Garcia Marquez has extraordinary strength and firmness of imagination and writes with the calmness of a man who knows exactly what wonders hecan perform." -- Alfred Kazin, "New York Times Book Review""Every scene, every gesture sings life and denies death...He is an absolute master."-- "New York Times""It is the genius of Garcia Marquez that fatalism and possibility somehow coexist, that dreams redeem, that there is laughter even in death."-- Jonathan Leonard, "New York Times"
