The Best Classic Books to Have on Your Bookshelf

"One Hundred Years of Solitude" ($11)

"One Hundred Years of Solitude" is one of the most iconic examples of post-modern, magical realist literature. Gabriel García Márquez's epic classic book tells the multi-generational story of a family in a fictitious town called Macondo. The ambitious work has been recognized as some of the most important writing in the Spanish language by the International Conference of the Spanish Language, which gave it that distinction in 2007.
