Pet Parrots! 🦜

I can’t stop thinking about Jazz while I read Love in the Time of Cholera. Making this post helped me figure out why.

So far the associations boil down to 4 things:

(1) Both books have (talking) pet parrots that are symbolic of themes around love. The main female characters get these pets for their homes AND their birds leave precipitously around a first-chapter death.

(2) Unrequited Love & Desire Themes explored in both books. (emphasized with parrot/bird symbolism)

(3) both are written with a culturally specific music style in mind: jazz for Jazz, Vallenato for Love in the Time of Cholera.

(4) Both authors are Nobel laureates. Toni Morrison won in 1993. Gabriel García Márquez won in 1982.

I am still reading Love in the Time of Cholera, and I’m keeping my eyes peeled for more similarities!

ID: six infographics with yellow backgrounds and purple text about Jazz by Toni Morrison and Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel García Márquez about similarities between the novels. All information included in the main caption above.
