Between the covers of the books that no one had ever read again, in the old parchments damaged by dampness, a livid flower had prospered, and in the air that had been the purest and brightest in the house an unbearable smell of rotten memories floated.-Gabriel Garcia Marquez in A Hundred Years of Solitude.

Interesting quote. I think we're reading that book next year for book club. I'm a bit intimidated by it, although my son read it in high school. The photo is lovely too.

Michele sent me. Have a great day!

Que belleza!

I love the lighting. And wouldn't you know it - I have that book on order in the original Spanish from my local independent bookstore.

Michele sent me, but I would've come by eventually anyways...
