Gabriel Garcia Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude is a testament of the fictional Buendia family through plagues of insomnia, civil war, hauntings and vendettas. As their tribulations continue, memories that matter get pushed beneath the surface, possibly too deep to ever be truly grasped again.

Pipes and kettledrums herald the arrival of gypsies on their annual visit to Macondo, the newly founded village where José Arcadio Buendía and his strong-willed wife, Úrsula, have started their new life. As the mysterious Melquíades excites Aureliano Buendía’s father with new inventions and tales of adventure, neither can know the significance of the indecipherable manuscript that the old gypsy passes into their hands.
