One title on the list: Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel García Márquez (Vintage, $15).Read about the book on Arana's list that she calls "the greatest novel of all time."
Florentino Ariza falls in love with Fermina Daza when she is still a child. She grows up to marry someone else, but his love never flags, even after 50 years. This is a novel of love in its infinite variety: spiritual, carnal, young, old, romantic, quotidian, and, finally, eternal.
--Marshal Zeringue
