Another one who collected a huge number of rejections was Gabriel
García Márquez's _Cien años de soledad_, now considered a classic and
translated into practically every language out there. But if
publishers could not find a story in Faulkner... maybe they couldn't
find a story in García Márquez's masterpiece, either. This stuff is weird.
