Memories of My Melancholy Whores of Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Posted by A dream on February 6, 2014

I was walking another floor of our company and was passing besides of my coworkers desk ..suddenly I saw a book on the desk of one of my coworker and i said : hi can I read this book ?

Poor my coworker have not finished it said oh yes you can take it and read it .And even I knew he has not finished it did not rejected his suggestion and took book :D 

So this book is about a writer and journalist who is 90 years old and unmarried. that exactly at the night of his B'Day he calls to his friend and ask her to find him a young girl for making love with him. 

Unlike the ever ( I am not sure about this word please make me correct) he instead of reaching what he wants ..he looked at the girl who is sleeping under the little  light of room and figure out that in his ages he never noticed the real love ..yes he falls is love with sleepy girl who is just if i am not wrong 13 years old :D .

What i feel about the story ..we know all that books of Gabriel Garcia Marquez are amazing but I do not know why I did not feel the person that he is writing about is 90 years old :) 

But the story is wonderful ..Wish you enjoy as I did :)

    I read this book five years back, and joined a group discussion too. As a matter of great regret, now I am unable to remember what the plot is about. Probably I didn't enjoy the book.
    I enjoyed more the book "No One Writes to the Colonel (1961)".
