In an interview, Márquez said: "Most love stories are bleak and always have a tragic end. In my Love in the Time of Cholera, that couple ended up being happy. In my It seems that happiness is a feeling that has fallen out of fashion, and I am trying to push it back into fashion. The only pain I feel about death is not being able to die for love." And the last sentence in the book is Ariza 's father said.
Comparing Marquez's life experience, I found that he actually split his life into two, and put them into two masterpieces, "One Hundred Years of Solitude" and "Love in the Time of Cholera".
Ariza has had physical relationships with more than 600 women that are far from the core of love, and has always made love old. The purpose of this is to make himself able to keep the ability to love for a long time, and he wants to leave true love to Fermina...
I think that any kind of life that is crazy, dull, enthusiastic, or paranoid can't be described as happiness, so is happiness really the ultimate goal of life? Schopenhauer said no. I agree with this answer.
