Now with no typos..."One Hundred Years of Solitude" quote

This is just nice writing:
(it is describing a scene where he forcefully threw her on the bed and tore off her robe after she had just showered...)

"Amaranta Ursula defended herself sincerely with the astuteness of a wise woman, weaseling her slippery, flexible, and fragrant weasel's body as she tried to knee him in the kidneys and scorpion his face with her nails, but without either of them giving a gasp that might not have been taken for that breathing of a person watching the meager April sunset through the open window."
