Gemmill 44784 Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 KCG has approached me to read the audiobook version of his novel, so that would depend entirely on your appetite to listen to that particular book. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzler 9694 Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 Can I just clarify how a person reads an audio book? Surely, they belong in "what are you listening to?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because you’ve never seen the dyslexic-friendly version of Wart Ars’s, doesn’t mean you’ve got be up in our face and angry, like Rev. Haddart.

PaddockLad 17238 Posted November 13 Share Posted November 13 One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez Wow That’s it. That’s the review 😆 The only book I can compare it to is Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas by Hunter S Thompson, just for its sprawling, virtually gonzo style.. it’s nothing like F&LILV but that’s the only other book that’s made me feel stoned whilst reading it. I don’t read read a lot of grown up fiction but this was fucking phenomenal ☺️ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’ll be subtitled as Marquez refused to sell the rights because he knew any adaptation would be in English. I think his son has done the deal and tbf to Netflix they’ve accepted the original terms…from this it looks great, from Dec 11 as far as I can make out, not sure if that’s UK 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
