Autumn of the Patriarch new translation

No circulation

Gabriel Garcia Marquez - the greatest writer of the 20th century, Nobel Prize laureate, author of the 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. The 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 utterly alone in his vast palace, where the real and the unreal coexist in the most peculiar ways. He wants and fears death. But… is there death for the embodiment of a legend? Perhaps the ruler will only become happy when he dies and understands that for him, the countless time of eternity has finally come to an end?
