Autumn of the Patriarch new translation

Gabriel Garcia Marquez – the greatest writer of the 20th century, Nobel Prize laureate, author of world-famous novels One Hundred Years of Solitude, Love in the Time of Cholera, and Autumn of the Patriarch. I have always wanted to write... a book about absolute power, – this is how the author defined the main theme of his work. A dictator of an unnamed Latin American country has been in power for so long that he no longer remembers how he came to it. He is both a man and a living myth, a puppeteer and a puppet in the hands of Roca. He is completely alone in his vast palace, where the real and the unreal coexist in the most bizarre way. He wants and fears death. But… is there death for the embodiment of legend? Perhaps the ruler will only be happy when he dies and realizes that his endless time of eternity has finally come to an end.
