“It had to teach her to think of love as a state of grace: not the means to anything but the alpha and omega, an end it itself": First American Edition of Love In The Time Of Cholera; Signed by Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Chip Kidd

First American edition of the author's work, which ranks as one of the great novels of the last half of the twentieth century. Octavo, original half cloth. Boldly signed by Gabriel Garcia Marquez on the dedication page. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Carol Devine Carson and Chip Kidd. Additionally signed by Chip Kidd on the rear dust jacket flap. Translated from the Spanish by Edith Grossman.

"This shining and heartbreaking novel may be one of the greatest love stories ever told," wrote the New York Times. It's a "sumptuous book[with] major themes of love, death, the torments of memory, the inexorability of old age" (The Washington Post). The English-language movie adaptation was released in 2007, starring Academy Award-nominated Brazilian actress Fernanda Montenegro.
