I recently read a magical realist novel called " One Hundred Years of Solitude ", which tells the story of seven generations of the Buenda family, spanning a hundred years of time and space, showing the rich history and culture of Latino America.
The characters in this novel were complex and varied, with strong personalities and emotional conflicts, but also full of magical and supernatural elements. Through the vivid plot and delicate description, the author Marquez let the readers feel the profoundness and richness of human nature, which opened their minds.
One Hundred Years of Solitude is a classic novel worth reading. It not only has literary value but also has profound cultural significance, suitable for readers of all ages.
Well, for me, it was a combination of things. I learned to listen actively, show genuine interest, and also work on my communication skills. That made a big difference.
It is indeed possible to get pregnant three days before your period. Normally, we think that the days closer to the period are'safe' but that's not always true. The female body is complex. Hormonal imbalances can cause unexpected ovulation. And as I said, sperm can live for a while inside. So, if by some chance ovulation occurs during that time, pregnancy can occur. For example, if a woman has a very short luteal phase (the time between ovulation and the start of the next period), it could mean that she ovulates closer to when her period is due than the average woman, increasing the chances of getting pregnant during what is typically thought of as a'safe' time.
