Memories of My Melancholy Whores: Gabriel Garcia MarquezGabriel García Márquez is best known for his novels One Hundred Yea of Solitude, and Love in the Time of Cholera.
This new short novel, Memories of My Melancholy Whores, told with elegance and grace, leaves the reader with a sense of something pure and moving and poignant, and very human. The latest novel by Colombian writer Gabriel Garcia Marquez has been banned in Iran - but only after censo noticed its title had been sanitised. The book, Memories of My Melancholy Whores, was published in Fai as Memories of My Melancholy Sweethearts.
This book offers a fresh and nuanced perspective into contemporary Chinese literature by presenting four authors and cultural bastards—Duo Duo, an underground seer-poet; Wang Shuo, a “hooligan” writer; Zhang Chengzhi, an old Red Guard and new cultural heretic; and Wang Xiaobo, a defiant yet melancholy chronicler of a dystopian modern world.
