A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings What is the author's tone in A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings by Gabriel Garcia Marquez? Asked by bookragstutor on 20 Aug 02:23 Last updated by Cat on 15 Apr 04:22
The tone is always sombre and melancholy. There is the subtext or allusion of the crucifixion that can always be felt as we see the old man being humiliated and hurt.
