Collected Stories

by Gregory Rabassa, Gabriel García Márquez, J.S. Bernstein
Collected Stories - Thryft
Collected Stories - Thryft

Enchanting tales; mysticism meets history and humor.

If you're seeking a literary journey filled with magical realism and poignant human experiences, Gabriel Garcia Marquez's "Collected Stories" is a treasure trove. His writing weaves together the surreal with the everyday, in stories that explore life's grand themes through a lens that is both whimsical and profound. The development of Marquez's distinctive narrative voice across these stories will captivate you and might rarely release you unchanged.
