What is Gabriel García Márquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude: A Casebook (Casebooks in Criticism) about?

One Hundred Years of Solitude (Cien años de soledad, 1967), by Gabriel García Márquez, is the multi-generational story of the Buendía Family, whose patriarch, José Arcadio Buendía, founds the town of Macondo, the metaphoric Colombia. The non-linear story is narrated via different time frames, a technique derived from the Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges (as in The Garden of Forking Paths).The story, considered to be the author's magnum opus, was first published in Spanish in 1967, and succeeded until translated to thirty-seven languages.[1] The magical realist style and thematic substance of One Hundred Years of Solitude established it as an important, representative novel of the literary Latin American Boom of the 1960s and 1970s,[2] that was stylistically influenced by Modernism (European and North American), and the Cuban Vanguardia (Vanguard) literary movement.
