Strange Pilgrims by Gabriel García Márquez
Combining terror and nostalgia, surreal comedy and the poetry of the commonplace, this book is a triumph of storytelling by our writer.
Celebratory and full of strange relish at life's oddnessThe stories draw their strength from Márquez's generous feel for character, good and bad, boorish and innocent * William Boyd *
