One Hundred Years of Solitude in Wisconsin continued the success of the Don Quixote in Wisconsin and the Dante’s Inferno in Wisconsin programs with García Márquez’s masterwork, One Hundred Years of Solitude. In the 2007-2008 academic year, high school and college classes from across the state participated in reading this book. The program culminated in a student conference in the spring of 2008.
