Here's a very interesting introductory video to One Hundred Years of Solitude taken from Annenberg Learner's website:
"This video introduces the idea of magical realism, of a world where the impossible and the possible are mingled, and people accept the presence of both in their daily lives. How much of the novel is a metaphor for life in Latin America? Decide for yourself as you dive into this novel by the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature". (Annenberg Learner)
This is our last "motivational piece" before we dive into the novel ourselves.
