本書介紹

《愛在瘟疫漫延時》馬奎斯代表作之一

人類有史以來最偉大的愛情小說！

馬奎斯：寫完這本書，我整個人像被掏空了一樣！

花朵會乾枯，鹽巴會腐蝕。

愛情會讓人忘了蒼老，會讓時間變得具體而微，

他已經等她等了51年9個月又4天……

　　費米娜沒有想過，一起生活了大半輩子的丈夫竟會以這種方式與她永別——他發現失蹤的鸚鵡停在芒果樹上，試圖把牠抓下來，卻不慎失足摔死。

　　失落與哀傷浸染著所有人的思緒，但費米娜卻有著複雜的心情，因為她的舊愛阿里薩竟在喪禮中現身。他曾為她寫下一封長達七十頁的情書，她是他的花冠女神，他們曾經愛得刻骨銘心，以為對方就是自己的一輩子，可是現實卻迫使費米娜放棄。

　　歷經戰禍與瘟疫，阿里薩從一個窮困潦倒的少年變成了航運大亨，不過他始終放不下對費米娜的感情。為了化解心中的痛苦，他與無數的女人交往，但痛苦卻不減反增。他的愛就像一種病，無論經過多久都無藥可醫。

　　等待了五十多年的時間，此刻滿頭白髮的阿里薩就站在至愛的面前，他再一次向費米娜求婚，並許下恆久不渝的誓言……

　　《愛在瘟疫蔓延時》以戰火動盪的大時代為背景，在前後橫跨超過半世紀的時間裡，寫盡了愛恨嗔癡的眾生百態。馬奎斯巧妙地將愛情的相思之苦比喻成瘟疫的病狀，而這段無法觸碰、充滿無奈的戀情，也如同無法治癒的絕症般，永無止盡地蔓延下去。

Nobel prize winner and author of One Hundred Years of Solitude Gabriel García Márquez tells a tale of an unrequited love that outlasts all rivals in his masterpiece Love in the Time of Cholera.

'It was inevitable: the scent of bitter almonds always reminded him of the fate of unrequited love'

Fifty-one years, nine months and four days have passed since Fermina Daza rebuffed hopeless romantic Florentino Ariza's impassioned advances and married Dr Juvenal Urbino instead. During that half-century, Flornetino has fallen into the arms of many delighted women, but has loved none but Fermina. Having sworn his eternal love to her, he lives for the day when he can court her again.

When Fermina's husband is killed trying to retrieve his pet parrot from a mango tree, Florentino seizes his chance to declare his enduring love. But can young love find new life in the twilight of their lives?

'The most important writer of fiction in any language' Bill Clinton

'An exquisite writer, wise, compassionate and extremely funny' Sunday Telegraph

'An amazing celebration of the many kinds of love between men and women' The Times
