  • ""En 1942 au cours de travaux dans un couvent d'Amérique latine, sont mis au jour les restes d'une adolescente, Sierva Maria de Todos los Angeles. Sa splendide chevelure mesure vingt-deux mètres de long ... Le romancier du Général dans son labyrinthe aurait-il tiré cette étrange découverte de sa flamboyante imagination? Réelle ou fictive, en tout cas, le point de départ d'une singulière histoire d'amour, dans le cadre joyeux coloré, décadent de Carthagène des Indes, au milieu du XVIIIe siècle. Fille unique du marquis de Casalduero, Sierva Maria a douze ans lorsqu'elle est mordue par un chien couleur de cendre, portant une lune blanche sur son front. Soupçonnée de rage ou de possession diabolique, enfermée au couvent par l'Inquisition elle vivra avec son exorciste, Don Cayetano Delaura une passion folle, destructrice, forcément maudite. A la croisée de l'histoire et de la légende, du mysticisme et de l'érotisme, Gabriel Garcia Marquez recule dans ce nouveau chef d'œuvre les frontières du " réalisme magique " dont il est l'inventeur. Poésie et maîtrise du ton transforment ici la scène du magicien aventureux en un merveilleux retable baroque."
  • "From the Nobel Prize-winning author of One Hundred Years of Solitude and Love in the Time of Cholera, a startling new novel - the story of a doomed love affair between an unruly copper-haired girl and the bookish priest sent to oversee her exorcism."
  • "Amid the lush, coastal tropics of an eighteenth-century South American seaport, an unruly, copper-haired girl and a bookish priest are caught in chaste, ill-fated love affair. Sierva Maria, the only child of a decaying noble family, has been raised in the slave quarters of her father's mansion while her mother resides on a faraway plantation. On her twelfth birthday she is bitten by a rabid dog, and even as the wound heals she is made to endure therapies indistinguishable from torture. Believed to be possessed, she is incarcerated in a convent, where she meets Father Cayetano Delaura, who has been sent to oversee her exorcism. As he tends to her with holy water and sacramental oils, Delaura feels "something immense and irreparable." It is love, "the most terrible demon of all.""
  • "In colonial South America, the doomed love of a 12-year-old girl and a priest thrice her age sent to exorcise her. She is a nobleman's daughter who has been bitten by a rabid dog. The authorities decide she is possessed by the devil and lock her up in a convent. By the author of Love in the Time of Cholera."@en

  • ""La lápida saltó en pedazos al primer golpe de la piocha, y una cabellera viva de un color de cobre intenso se derramó fuera de la cripta. El maestro de obra quiso sacarla completa con la ayuda de sus obreros, y cuanto más tiraban de ella más larga y abundante parecía, hasta que salieron las últimas hebras todavía prendidas a un cráneo de niña.? En el esplendor y decadencia de la América esclavista del siglo XVIII se escribió la historia de Sierva María de Todos los Ángeles, la marquesita recluida en un convento donde enfrentará el prejuicio y la ignorancia de su tiempo, los horrores de la Inquisición y de la enfermedad incurable, y el dolor inagotable del amor sin esperanza. Su leyenda desbordante de magia trascenderá los siglos para cuestionar la naturaleza de la fe, de la pasión y aun la opresión definitiva de la muerte."

As he tends to her with holy water and sacramental oils, Delaura feels something shocking begin to occur. He has fallen in love and it is not long until Sierva Maria joins him in his fevered misery. Unsettling and indelible, Of Love and Other Demons is an evocative, majestic tale of the most universal experiences known to woman and man."
