Love in the time of cholera
\"Based on the novel by acclaimed writer Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Love in the Time of Cholera is the evocative story of Florentino Ariza and Fermina Daza who, in youth, fall passionately in love. Fermina's father, however, has bigger plans for his daughter and forbids her to marry a lowly telegraph operator. He separates the two, sending Fermina to live with relatives in a remote jungle town. Years pass and when Fermina finally returns, she dismisses Florentino's love and chooses to marry Juvenal Urbino, a wealthy, well-born doctor. Florentino is devastated, but he is a romantic. As he rises in his business career, he whiles away the years in 622 affairs - yet he reserves his heart for Fermina. Juvenal dies at last, and Florentino purposefully attends his funeral. Fifty-one years, nine months and four days after he first declared his love for Fermina, he will do so again. Lauded as one of the greatest love stories of all time and set amid the lush, romantic backdrop of early 20th century Colombia, Love in the Time of Cholera is about the heartache of unrequited love and a man who is willing to wait forever for the woman he loves\"--Copyright description.
