>Then he skipped again to anticipate the predictions and ascertain the date and circumstances of his death. Before reaching the final line, however, he had already understood that he would never leave that room, for it was foreseen that the city of mirrors (or mirages) would be wiped out by the wind and exiled from the memory of men at the precise moment when Aureliano Babilonia would finish deciphering the parchments, and that everything written on them was unrepeatable since time immemorial and forever more, because races condemned to one hundred years of solitude did not have a second opportunity on earth.

Try not to think of nobel prizes as objective awards of merit, in the sense that the subject is "better" than any other literature. Try to think of it more in terms of a piece that happens to capture the literary zeitgeist of its particular location in history, and a reflection of the ethos of its time, so to speak.

"I just need you to remember," Danny said, as he cradled his jug of wine, glass shiny purple with the light of the stove fire, "I like my wine free, my beef marinated, my women loose... and my tortilla flat."
