A Literary Magician Passes --- Day 3/96

Walk: Corte Madera shoe search
Distance: 6 blocks and lots of personal closet try-ons

GABRIEL GARCÍA MÁRQUEZ | 1927-2014

Exuberant Master of Magic Realism

Time to re-read (and finish) 100 Years of Solitude.  Ciwt remembers stunning sentences that made her cry just for the pure beauty of them.  (Even if she didn't understand exactly what had transpired in them as they - one sentence - could cover several generations and multiple characters). Such lyrical writing - deeply human and soaringly spiritual all at once.
