One Hundred Years of Solitude is a novel by Colombian author Gabriel García Marquéz, which follows an unbreakable cycle of misfortune in a fictional town called Macondo. Macondo is also the name of the oil well where the Deepwater Horizon rig was drilling. Colombian-born oceanographer Dr. Isabel Romero relates the misfortunes in that novel to the disastrous effects of the oil spills she’s seen in Colombia, the Gulf of Mexico, and beyond. This episode was recorded during a live event hosted by The Story Collider: Stories About Science.
