Slight correction: there were 17 coroneles Aureliano Buendía. What he’s saying is that Trump might try to topple the Colombian government, but, like him, other coroneles who love Colombia are ready if petro should lose a coup d’etat supported by the US/CIA (Allende in Chile)
Petro might be the last Coronel, but he may not. As for remedios, she symbolizes beauty and the butterflies symbolize hope. Quite the literary homage wasted on an ignorant who lacks curiosity and fashions himself the schoolyard bully
He was a character in 100 Years of Solitude. He was a colonel In the liberal rebellion. My interpretation of his character was that he lived on forever through his family. He was quiet and resilient. But it’s been a long time since I read this book. Great book!📕
