So, what's the significance of the insomnia sickness. Is it just for fun?

[Sasha Gombar @sgombar1]

I <3 how the words "science" and magic" are used interchangeably in this book. Usually science=disillusionment in literature.

[Sasha Gombar @sgombar1]

The gender roles in this book are really atypical -- like how Ursula is the breadwinner, with her bakery business. I wonder why that is.

[Sasha Gombar @sgombar1]

Sooo...how seriously are we supposed to be taking the creepy relationship between Aureliano and Remedios? Because it's weird.

"He had really been through death, but he had returned because he could not bear the solitude." Marquez, pg. 49. Favorite quote so far!

If ever was such a misfortunate man!

"Life wasn't made to be easy on folks: they wouldn't ever have any reason to be good and die." So does trial purify or corrupt? #confused

"If the sack is full, I can't help it. It will be that I had to do it..." Dewey Dell, shifting blame. Like father, like daughter...

Spoiler alert -- Why exactly did Darl burn the barn? I have a few ideas but am not totally sure.

"If ere was such an unfortunate man" (p. 163). Does something count as "misfortune" if it's all your fault, Anse?

WC: @jim_burden needs to mind his own business, get off my property, and away from my hired girls! #hedeservedit

MrsS: My daughter, a mom with no husband? This never would have happened in the old country!

LL: Didn't mean to lead him on! It's not my fault if he got the wrong idea! #whoops

LL: Dance halls, shopping, and candy stores? Good bye, farm life, #helloblackhawk. #outofhere
