I had trouble following 1st person story telling. Hard to believe gruesome details, but friend from Central America said could be factual. Graphic imagery and language.
I had to read this for a first-term English class. Though I didn't like it, I see why many people do. Marquez's narrative style in this story is quite unique, and I appreciated the idea of having everyone else tell a story without that omniscient narrator or a first-person narrative to explain exactly what happened to Santiago Nasar.
