I read this book about 15 years ago because a very bright co-worker had said she did not like it. I was curious. This book is a keeper, a book to be reread. Although a love story in time of cholera may seem an odd scenario, I was very happy that I chose to read it. It made me think ofThe Plagueand a song from the 60's about a castle surrounded by plague. Life can go on in the midst of disaster.
