Notes

One Hundred Years of Solitude has a narrative thread relating to revolution soldiers not receiving their war pension; also, according to the Spanish Wikipedia, No One Writes to the Colonel takes place in a small town near Macondo after the revolution, thereby connecting this non-genre story to Gabriel García Márquez's Macondo stories.
