Ervin Patrick Thanks sir! This is a good idea which I can incorporate during my report but can you site some of these "post-colonialist" events in the book? I mean: is there still a sense of colonialism left in the post-colonial setting of this book? If there is, which is which? It would be highly appreciated. :)

Branka I have never treated Gabriel Marquez as a "third world" writer, in fact he is one of my favourites. Since I manage to somehow understand One Hundred Years of Solitude, I read him and like him. He is intrepid, talks about sexuality and passions as if that is topic usually talked about and makes me understand it batter, and also understand me, and others around me better. We cannot apart ourselves from, not our sexuality, but from our passions, and if we don't manage to understand them, and try to fell them in right places, we would never be satisfied.
This is the first time I hear someone classes him as a "third world" writer, and why is that so? I am not even sure what a "third world writer" means?
