I just finished reading "Memoirs of My Melancholy Whores" by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. The book is hilarious, passionate, and absurd. Very similar in style to his more famous book, "100 Years of Solitude", which I started a couple months ago but never quite finished. This one is quite short - only about 110 pages - and is the story of a 90 year old man discovering love for the first time, the object of his love being a 14 year old girl. As I said, absurd. I quite enjoyed it.

The book was recommended and lent to me by my new cube mate, Sean Askay, and I in turn recommend it to you :)
