Love in the Time of Cholera

July 24, 2009

      

     Melissa Roxas, the Fil-American activist abducted and tortured by still unknown elements was given souvenirs by her torturers. (full story)

 

    

     Among the souvenirs was a copy of Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s “Love in the Time of Cholera”.

 

 

     I remember Florentino Ariza. The shadow who loved his crowned goddess, Fermina Daza, from the first time he saw her and waited for 51 years, 9 months and 4 days to claim his beloved.

 

 

     Is there a Florentino Ariza in this modern time?

 

    

     Love in the time of Influenza A(H1N1).
