Why Chosen
This incredible novel opened up the world of Latin American literature and magical realism to me at a time when I desperately needed to behold something beautiful in life. It had such a powerful impact that I was compelled to change my major (at a most inconvenient time, I might add). May we all find beauty and inspiration when it has eluded us. 'There is always something left to love.' Gabriel Gacia Marquez, One Hundred Years of Solitude.
