Notes:
In this critique and review of the book Carol Herman states, "Readers had every reason to hope that Nobel laureate Gabriel García Márquez's latest novel, "Memories of My Melancholy Whores," his first work of fiction in 10 years, would be something to behold. But there is a wrinkle, and it rests in the limitations of the book's own central and disturbing act of "beholding.""

"An unprecedented movie deal with Nobel Prize-winner Gabriel García Márquez was signed with Scott Steindorff's Stone Village Productions after the producer had spent two years pursuing the reluctant author. The deal is for Love in the Time of Cholera and was signed with Carmen Balcells and Nuria Coloma at Balcells's Barcelona agency for over $1 million, with close to twice as much added if a movie goes into production."
