Atlas Book Club: An Evening in Colombia - Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

For our third destination, we journey to Colombia through this month's book: Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. About the book: 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. 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?

Everyone is welcome and we encourage being open minded and willing to learn!
