@Kyt You could be right! I assumed that guys have at least read 'love in time of cholera 'or 100 years of solitude .Great son of Columbia who unfortunately lived mostly in exile . Truth forever on the scaffold

I recently went back to reading. Never heard of this guy before BBC did his story. I heard Ken Walibora's glowing tribute and decided I'll look for his works

I first got interested in his works when I was selling books online around 4 years ago, and love in the time of cholera was amongst the most ordered book, the title sounded funny and at first I thought it was a kenyan author with the small 80 pages story books - kumbe it was a very big name in the writers world.
