[LM_NET] Love in the Time of Cholera

[Mary Peterson <MPeterson@CRANBROOK.EDU>]

This book is in our library, as well as read by students in our Upper School 
classes.  Below is a description and reviews, including a link to Amazon with 
reviews from Publisher's Weekly and Library Journal.  I, too, have read the book 
and do not find it "too much" for a high school reader.

FROM THE PUBLISHER
From the Nobel Prize-winning author of One Hundred Years of Solitude comes a 
masterly evocation of an unrequited passion so strong that it binds three people's 
lives together for more than fifty years. In the story of Florentino Ariza, who 
waits more than half a century to declare his undying love to the beautiful Fermina 
Daza, whom he lost to Dr. Juvenal Urbino so many years before, Garc*a M*rquez has 
created a vividly absorbing fictional world, as lush and dazzling as a dream and as 
real and immediate as our own deepest longings. Now available for the first time in 
the Contemporary Classics series!
