One Hundred Years of Solitude Text
The Book
- - Being that the themes are spread through out the book, various quotes and passages proved beneficial in my quest for knowledge. The characters and their personalities helped to exhibit certain themes of the book. For example, Jose Arcadio Buendia places himself into solitude after discovering that none of the objects the gypsies brought to him work. From this point on, many of his offspring display the same thoughts and actions when they encounter adversity. So the book is a very helpful source to understanding and using ''hands'' on material.
