I asked many people before, is the book "One Hundred Years of Solitude" good? How to read? Each of them told me it was really good-looking, but didn't tell me how to read it.
When I opened the book, I saw the most classic opening statement that everyone knows:
Years later, Colonel Aureliano stood before the firing squad, reminiscent of the distant afternoon when his father had taken him to see the ice.
This passage was later praised by countless posterity, and at the same time imitated by countless writers. In this short sentence, Márquez uses the present tense, the past tense, and the future tense to create a kind of time loop, and what is even more reverie is that when you read "One Hundred Years of Solitude", you will find that this passage is more like the epitome of the whole book, starting from "ice cubes" and ending with "ice cubes".
In fact, in this book, loneliness is written thoroughly, and there are many classic philosophies of life.
1) The secret of a happy old age is nothing else, but a decent agreement with loneliness.
2) Even if you think that your feelings have dried up to give, there will always be a moment when something can pluck the strings of the deep soul, after all, we are not born to enjoy loneliness.
3, just because I made too many expectations for the future, I am particularly disappointed in my current self. All the splendor that has ever existed in life needs to be repaid with loneliness after all.
4. The bitter smile of the parties replaces the tears of the bystanders, and the pain of the "fool's" self-expression replaces the seemingly fair criticism and analysis of the "wise man", and can more receive the objective effect of arousing the deep reflection of the group of fooled people.
5, mediocrity will dry your mind to the point of no moisture, and then glory will pluck the strings of the deepest part of your soul.
6, the premonition is always suddenly coming, a flash of inspiration, as if a certain belief sprouted in an instant but could not be captured.
7, the pendulum can make anything fly, but can not make itself empty.
8. The past is gone, and complicity and communication have become hostile and silent.
9) Man does not die when he deserves to die, but when he can die.
10. It turns out that time will also be wrong and unexpected, and it will burst apart, leaving an eternal fragment in a certain room.
Márquez's concept of loneliness is like the lyrics of Monsieur Van Gogh: "Whatever you have, we are born lonely".
How to read "One Hundred Years of Solitude"? I think it is enough to ensure that I read it at least once in my life, after all, I need to spend my life to experience the loneliness in this.
In this novel, in order to fight against loneliness, people are immersed in work, parties with friends, and immersed in love, seeing here as if they see themselves, in order not to let the soul be so painful, don't we also taste everything?
Some people say that this is a book without love, but more romantic than love, a hundred years of loneliness tells us that loneliness is a part of everyone's body, what you have to do is not to get rid of it, but to live in peace with it, only then will you understand that you actually have nothing, and you are no longer afraid of losing.
