London: Jonathan Cape, 1988. First printing. Near fine in near fine jacket.. First UK edition of GarcÃa Marquez's ode to the persistence of romantic memory. The author's acclaimed novel, first published in Spanish in 1985. The English translation was praised by Thomas Pynchon to the utmost reaches of superlative adjectives, and was the recipient of less frenzied but still glowing compliments from Michiko Kakutani. GarcÃa Márquez's theme â romantic love that never fades, vows never broken; or, seen another way, the nightmare impossibility of permanently dismissing a determined suitor â struck Pynchon as "revolutionary," though his judgment that working in "love's vernacular" is a "daring step for any writer" may raise eyebrows among those familiar with genres and modes of writing in which these themes and treatments have never fallen out of fashion. GarcÃa Márquez himself once said, with perhaps greater perception, that the revolutionary part of writing consists simply of doing it well: and he did. A beautiful copy. 8.25'' x 5.5''. Original publisher's olive cloth. In original unclipped (11.95) color pictorial jacket designed by Andrew Kulman. 352 pages. Slight lean. Trace edgewear. Else bright, sharp, and clean overall.
