Until August by Gabriel Garcia Marquez review his abandoned last novel
Briefly

If dementia left Garcia Marquez unable to complete the book to his satisfaction, then perhaps the condition also made it harder for him to judge the book's merit, his sons suggest; finding the novel valuable, they've chosen either way to ignore their father's wishes and prioritize readers' pleasure.
The smooth-reading result is the story of Ana Magdalena Bach, who every August leaves her unnamed country on the Atlantic coast for 24 hours on the unnamed Caribbean island where her mother chose to be buried.
