Title: Good novel, but too much of a copy of Gabo's work
Review: This novel would have been a lot more interesting if I had not read One Hundred Years of Solitude beforehand. I found it to be a poor (in relative terms) imitation of Garcia Marquez's masterpiece. I was neither moved nor touched by the saga of the decaying family precisely because the Buendia's power is unmatched. Allende is a writer of much talent, but let's say that originality is not her strong point. I saw the same thing happen with Afrodita and Como Agua Para Chocolate...please, there are some well-read people out there...give us a break.
