Really enjoyed "Chronicle of a Death Foretold" and his "Eyes of a Blue Dog" story collection. I'm trying to learn Spanish so I can read him in his native tongue.

Only read 100 years of solitude and it was pretty good. I heard he's a pretty well known television personality in South America.

Eyes of a Blue Dog is phenomenal. It never gets mentioned around here in short story threads

100 Years of Solitude is a masterpiece, but the rest of his work, even if it still pretty good, is a bit underwhelming.

His books with cute little girls are great, if only for the fap factor

Boring but it's more entertaining than Vargas Llosa
