I can't tell if this is a highly intellectually developed work or if it's just a bunch of goofy stories written with a lot of similar names that names it seem difficult. Could someone tell me if this is a work of the highest intellectual value or if I should look elsewhere?

Difficulty is near irrelevant to value. The point of the book is that the stories are analogies for the historical stages of an actual country's development. Read the history, at least a little.

No one's told me whether the book is of high intellectual value in no uncertain terms yet.

It is a bunch of tricky stories where boundaries of possibility are fluid. That it's executed so perfectly makes it feel highly intellectually developed. If you're looking for high intellectual value, make the book an interpretive tool. It feels good to go deep with it and it feels good to just flow with it, and you can do both from page to page.

It's a highly intellectually developed work.
It captures the mistique of amazonian-caribean countryside in south america very very well.

It took Marquez hundreds of pages to imitate what Rulfo did with far fewer words in Pedro Paramo. Read that instead.

Based and checked. Fucking anglo's and their obsession with faux high-brow nonsense. It's a good story.
