"While Fermina and Juvenal married and honeymoon in Paris, Florentino--the picture of unrequited love--has descended into physical pleasure with a random woman on a cruise ships and a 28 year old widow from his hometown. The contrast between Fermina, climbing the social ranks and traveling Europe with her husband, and Florentino, love sick and wretched is becoming more stark the further from her rejection."
