"I’m a born optimist," — with these words the Colombian prose writer Gabriel García Márquez, the creator of “magical realism,” concluded his Nobel lecture. The first work released after the award was given was the “most optimistic” novel by García Márquez, “Love in the Time of Cholera.” It is a novel about love. More precisely, it is the Story of One Love, with a huge number of different love stories serving as its backdrop. The eternal theme, mystical-exotic atmosphere, and, of course, the author’s magical talent make the novel unforgettable.
