Chronical of a Death Fortold
by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
review by Kevin Y.
The narrator (name not mentioned) goes back to his old homeown to learn about a murder that happened 20 years later. He interviews people from the town slowly figuring our what happened the night Santiago Nasar was murdered.
He finds out that a lot of people know Santiago was going to be killed, but no one told him. The 2 people who killed him were Pedro and Pablo Vicerio, the twin brothers of Angela Vicerio. The reason they killed him was because Angela says that Santiago had taken her virginity.
But in the end she told a lie and Santiago was found to be killed for nothing. The story takes place somewhere by the Caribbean Sea. The characters seem to be Arab and it sounds like the story took place in the past.
