It´s the best work of García Márquez. A novel that narrates the vicisitudes of Aureliano Buendía in the mythic Macondo, a town in some unknown region of Colombia. This novel was written in the magic realism ("realismo mágico") by García Márquez, a style that mix together amazing elements taken by fiction and realkity.
I didn't enjoy Marquez's style very much when I first read OHYS, but on reflection I was mostly too immature to appreciate it. Worth a read.
One of my favorite books.
'The' Magical Realist novel really. Obviously not the only one, but the classic.
