Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

A classic story of enduring love from the Nobel prize-winning author.

'It was inevitable: the scent of bitter almonds always reminded him of the fate of unrequited love'

Fifty-one years, nine months and four days have passed since Fermina Daza rebuffed hopeless romantic Florentino Ariza's impassioned advances and married Dr Juvenal Urbino instead. During that half-century, Flornetino has fallen into the arms of many delighted women, but has loved none but Fermina.

When Fermina's husband is killed trying to retrieve his pet parrot from a mango tree, Florentino seizes his chance to declare his enduring love. But can young love find new life in the twilight of their lives?

Beautiful detail in the writing. Graphic descriptions

Wonderfully original story, beautifully written with unique construction. Characters and emotions are observed in the finest detail and as result they come to life.
