100 Years of Solitude

I finally read this. This is Jenny’s favorite novel as well as that of a few other friends I’ve known along the way. (Mine remains “Anna Karenina” which I read one summer in college when I was toiling away as a temp file clerk in the basement of O’Melveny and Myers in L.A.)

Wow. He didn’t win a Nobel Prize for nothing. With that blazing literary insight I'll check out.

Hey Chris: If you liked Anna Karenina (which I also read as a law clerk), have you trekked through Crime & Punishment or the Brothers Karamozov? Those Russian writers know something about novels and character development. Russians may not be so good at stuff like Democracy, but they sure know novels ... and tennis, and poisoning people. --Tim
