100 Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

If you like Marquez (especially in his epic mode like in 100 Years), I'd recommend trying out Texaco by Chamoiseau. Similar narratives and styles, but Chamoiseau has a magic all his own. I've tried (unsuccessfully) to learn French just to read it in its original language.

Hope you are enjoying it! I think I have read all of his and I found it to be least enjoyable of any of his even though it probably is the most well known/loved/etc. My top three are The General in His Labyrinth , Chronicle of a Death Foretold, Love in the Time of Cholera. And the non-fiction News of a Kidnapping.
