Enter Marquez's primitive demonic lovelorn world
If you are familiar with Garcia Marquez you will find here all that you might expect: fantastic situations and characters, fabulous exoticism, the desolate poetry of longing, heartbreak, alienation. His unique literary creation is like a teeming jungle overgrown with abundant wildflowers. His universe is as beautiful as it is original; as vivid and colourful as it is heartbreaking. Here his sublime creation, the ill-fated young girl Servia María, bitten by rabid dog, is suspected of demonic possession and interred in a convent where she is subjected to the rigours of exorcism. A love story will blossom, but what is the power of love pitted against the satanic machinations of a darkened world full of ignorant paranoic violent and you could say diabolic beliefs. This is Marquez, the novel is rich with characters, and each sentence enlivens, enrapts and fascinates. His imaginations stretches and enchants ours. His language, especially in its original Spanish, is beautifully wrought. Servia María, with her magnificent head of uncut hair, her innocence and her beauty, will possess you long after you have finished reading her story.

Forced to read it for class, reread it for pleasure.
This is a captivating story that offers a nearly comical look at the issues that have plagued Catholicism for a millennium. GGM somehow keeps the action coming even with a noticeable lack of concrete action. This dance between medicine and the supernatural (or science vs religion) has been a wonderful read.On a different note...though I would consider myself muy advanced/fluent when it comes to Spanish as a second language, this book was exceedingly easy to comprehend. So, if you are looking to fortify your language skills, this may be a nice option for that.

Buen libro!
Muy Buena historia, como todos sus libros. Aunque en mi punto de vista, el final esta un poco apresurado. Recomendado!

Perfecto
Es perfecto, tal y como lo recordaba. Me trajo recuerdos hermosos. Las letras están legibles, me hubiera gustado encontrarlo con la carpeta dura. Llegó en perfecto estado, bien empacado. Recomendado👍🏼

Del amor y otros demonios
Todos tenemos nuestros demonios, son personales, son únicos. Sin embargo nuestra sociedad los ha mostrado como colectivos durante siglos para perpetuar creencias, mantener seguidores, evitar explicar lo explicable y vivir confortablemente bajo la ignorancia del statu quo y el de la mágica tranquilidad y falsa lucha contra el mal que es tan relativo.
