GARCÍA-MÁRQUEZ, Gabriel (1927-2014). One Hundred Years of Solitude. Translated from the Spanish by Gregory Rabassa. New York: Harper & Row, Publishers, [1970]. 8vo. [423], [1, blank] pp. Publisher’s full green cloth, front board and spine stamped in gilt, publisher’s unclipped (“$7.95”) dust jacket (light rubbing to cloth binding, some light rubbing marks to rear board; jacket spine a bit sunned, some edgewear, marginal light chipping and some short marginal creased tears, some toning to jacket). Very good. FIRST AMERICAN EDITION, FIRST PRINTING OF BOOK (no number line on final blank), IN FIRST PRINTING DUST JACKET (with the uncorrected “!” at the end of the first paragraph on the front jacket flap). This critically acclaimed title is from one of the most prominent Latin American writers of the twentieth century. It is one of the best examples of the “magical realism” genre; this title is certainly one of the main reasons García-Márquez won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1982.
