It as an absolutely stunning piece of literature and magical realism. It can be a grueling read due to a complicated family tree and several characters having identical names, but if you can get passed that, absolutely worth the journey into Macando.

This is one of my favorites! I’ve reread it a couple of times. The complexity of the story is what makes it magical, but ultimately, in between the craziness, it can be very relatable.
