100 years of solitude

Just finish reading this book last night


It's about a family story along 100 years, they all have one thing in common: they died suffering from solitude or at least they spend parts of their lives in solitude.


The author (Gabriel García Márquez) won a Nobel prize, so it was so tempting to read this story.


BuT, i can summary this story in one word "Surprise"

In the first 4 chapters, i was surprised in every new page by the new characters they step in the story: About 30 characters.
while reading the story, i had to go back some pages to recall the entrance of this character or that lots of time.
Another surprise: the relations
unreasonable, un acceptable relations between the family members

After closing the book i had a big question in my head: what's this mean?? what kind of solitude do we suffer from?
I think this novel needs some time after reading to think more about it
