The story of a announced death

The story documents a true story that took place in the hometown of Marquez in Colombia in 1951. It narrates the story of Santiago Nassar's assassination at the hands of the twin brothers Vicario. From the beginning of the story, it is announced that Santiago Nassar will die: he is the young son of an Arab immigrant, accused of dishonoring Anghela, the twin brothers' sister, who had married the day before, and her husband rejected her because she was not a virgin, and sent her back to her family. "There has never been a declared death like this," this is what those who remember the events say after twenty-seven years of their occurrence: the assassins did not stop declaring their intention to kill Santiago Nassar in front of the entire village, as if they wanted to avoid what fate had imposed on them. But a series of coincidences prevented those capable of intervening from doing so, and some of them did not believe or did not decide to intervene until after it was too late. Even Santiago himself wakes up that morning without worries or anxiety, completely unaware of the death awaiting him.
