Хроника объявленной смерти. О любви и прочих бесах. Вспоминая моих несчастных шлюшек

O chem by ni pisal Markes, on vsegda pisal ob odnom i, v sushchnosti, glavnom - o li͡ubvi i o smerti. I povesti, sostavivshie ėtot sbornik - ne iskli͡uchenie.V 'Khronike obʺi͡avlennoĭ smerti' geroĭ pogibaet nautro posle pervoĭ brachnoĭ nochi. 'O li͡ubvi i prochikh besakh' - zharkiĭ rasskaz o strasti svi͡ashchennika k i͡unoĭ aristokratke - strasti, kotorui͡u ne sposobny izgnatʹ ni molitva, ni post, ni plami͡a kostra. I nakonet͡s v tretʹeĭ povesti li͡ubovʹ prikhodit kak nezhdannyĭ i nezasluzhennyĭ dar v kont͡se bessmyslenno prozhitoĭ zhizni.Li͡ubovʹ i smertʹ, kak talantlivye i opytnye partnery, vedut so stranit͡sy na stranit͡su povesteĭ Markesa svoĭ istinno latinoamerikanskiĭ tanet͡s - otchai͡annyĭ, opasnyĭ i strastnyĭ.

Whatever Marquez wrote about, he always wrote about one thing and, in fact, the main thing – about love and about death. And the stories that made up this collection are no exception.In The Chronicle of the Announced Death, the hero dies the morning after the wedding night. "About love and other demons" is a hot story about the passion of a priest for a young aristocrat-a passion that neither prayer, nor fasting, nor the flame of a bonfire can banish. And finally, in the third story, love comes as an unexpected and undeserved gift at the end of a senseless life.Love and death, as talented and experienced partners, lead from page to page of Marquez's novels their true Latin American dance-desperate, dangerous and passionate.
