Nobel Prize winner Gabriel García Márquez's novella, Chronicle of a Death Foretold, is a dark and profound novel about the codes that men impose on women, and women on themselves; the curious notions of honor that can dominate an isolated community; the irresistible impulse toward violence; and the psychology of mass complicity (from the dust wrapper). According to Jonathan Yardley in Washington Post Book World, Chronicle of a Death Foretold "is, in miniature, a virtuoso performance.". Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers ABE-1611192237616
