A Death Foretold was published in 1981 and became a widely acclaimed novel. It tells the story of the assassination of Santiago Nasar by the Vicario twins.
From the beginning of the story, it is announced that Santiago Nasar will die: he is the young son of an Arab immigrant, accused of raping Angela, the twins’ sister. She had been married the day before, but her husband rejected her because she was not a virgin and sent her back to her family.
“There has never been a death so announced,” says one who recalls the events twenty-seven years after they occurred. The two avengers never stopped declaring their intention to kill Santiago Nasar before the entire village, as if they wanted to avoid what fate had imposed upon them. But a series of coincidences prevented those who could have prevented the crime from intervening. Some of them did not believe it, or did not decide to intervene until it was too late. Even Santiago himself woke up that morning without worries or anxiety, completely unaware of the death that awaited him.
