After reading "One Hundred Years of Solitude"


"One Hundred Years of Solitude", as a famous work for Marquez won the Nobel Prize in Literature, it is nothing but a wonderful novel not to be missed. Many people analyzed this work and said that it reflects the historical evolution and social reality of Latin America. I don't have enough knowledge for me to write such a deep comment. Therefore, as a reader, I can only tell the two most different women in this novel.

"Ursula is as hardworking as her husband. She is a serious, active and short woman with a strong will. She has never sang a song for a lifetime. From dawn to late night, she is everywhere, and she can be heard everywhere. The pulp of the Dutch linen skirt was slightly rustling."

Compared to the beginning of the incomparable classic, I think this sentence should be more mundane, so it is usually not noticed - this is the first sentence in this book that positively describes Ursula's words. As described in the book, Ursula is such a seemingly ordinary woman, her hard work and strength is the most dazzling flash of her body. She is a wife and a mother. Whether her husband is a weird academic fanatic, or discovering that her children and grandchildren are caught in a grotesque destiny, she is relentlessly fighting against her destiny. Trying to make the dilemma reverse, let people have a little more connection with people, and unify the power of dispersion.

Although this last attempt ended in failure, her later years were spent in the gradual derivation of loneliness caused by the vague darkness of the eye disease and the long-lasting years. But her enthusiasm is strong, and it is especially rare in a bunch of strange and strange people. The life that she has been holding, the generations of people living together, was once the most happy and beautiful scene in "One Hundred Years of Solitude."

Amaranta Buendia, the youngest daughter of Ursula, the face-faced girl fell in love with the piano technician Pietro.

Strong remorse and hatred intertwined and distorted her psychology. She had contact with Pietro but refused to marry him, causing Pietro to commit suicide. Out of remorse, she deliberately burned a hand and wrapped it with a black bandage for the rest of her life, determined to never marry.

But the inner loneliness and depression made her unbearable, even mixed with the younger adult, and even then she could not get rid of her inner loneliness. She sewed her clothes all day long in the room, sewed and undressed, and broke the seams until the last moment of life.

For the Buendian family, loneliness is a common problem. Perhaps even if there is no Pietro, the ending of Amaranta will not be much different. In the repeated fate, Pietro is a starting point, let Amaranta bid farewell to the girl's lively innocence. She has longed for love in her life, and she has been rejecting love all her life. In this contradiction, I spent my life.

The experience of Ursula and Buendia can be said to be the insinuation of the fate of the Benndia family in "One Hundred Years of Solitude" - destined to be accompanied by loneliness that cannot be rid of. The magical color in the novel makes the family experience a "destiny". But in fact, the transformation of many things is traceable: human greed and jealousy provoke war and cause death; due to the indifference between people, individuals gradually become lonely and lose contact with the group. Thus, the seven generations of this family have spent a long hundred years in this loneliness. May the end of the fable say that there will be no such family after that, to bear the loneliness of a hundred years.
