The main character, Barney is a Canadian a frustrated man, who has to defend his self from a murder accusation. A fascinating book, ironic, sometime sarcastic. The discreptive style is high.

If you like Marquez you have to read this book. You can find here references to previus his famous books, like "One Hundred Years of Solitude". The style is the usual great Marquez style: descriptions full of details, situations of amazing latin culture.

It is an Italian Restaurant, managed by Italians, not the usual chain like "Bella Italia". The food is really Italian tasting. The negative aspects: 1) the menu does not offer many choices; 2)it is expensive.
