5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent way to start on Garcia Marquez and Macondo, 4 Jan 1998
By A Customer
A wonderfull collection of stories with the best of Garcia Marquez' magical realism, which introduces the reader to life in Macondo and the author's writting style. I recommend you read this book before trying 100 years of solitude because the short stories are much simpler but just as amusing. Once you start reading it you won't be able to stop.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not that great, 8 April 2009
By Mr. S. F. Lyon - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Innocent Erendira and Other Stories (Paperback)
I have read 7 or 8 of Marquez's books and this is by far the worst I have read. Some of the stories I just could not finish as for want of a better word, they were complete 'gibberish'. Maybe it is the translations or the fact that some were written over 50 years ago but I get a feeling that he is sometimes being too clever and the meaning gets completely lost.
