Garcia Marquez, Gabriefrey50
The autumn of the patriarch - New York Harper & Row 1975 - 269 p.
A dictator's body is discovered in his enormous, crumbling palace. Revolutionaries burst in and find his rotting corpse in an anarchic tangle of past and present- a present already lost and decayed, a past of almost unimaginable richness in which the palace was crowded with the dictator's ministers, bodyguards and servants, who kept him precariously balanced in power, and also with a tribe of women and children. The atmosphere is dream like -- even nightmarish--real, vibrant and sensually exact, and at the same time vague and almost unbelievable.
