The extended reflection was provided by Professor Ilan Stavans, who is the Lewis-Sebring Professor of Humanities and Latin American and Latino Culture at Amherst College. This week it was our great pleasure to hear from two more guests. Before they do, however, magic intersects with modernization, and community with solitude, for just over one hundred years. We get to know the members of the Buendía family and follow their lives in the Colombian village of Macondo, until the village and the family both come to an end. And it does that by telling the story of a single family across several generations. We start Season 2 with a boom – the Latin American Boom, that is – by reading Gabriel García Márquez’s Cien años de soledad / One Hundred Years of Solitude! This book gives a glimpse into an important moment for Latin American literature and world literature. ![]()
