Marquez and Kundera actually work similarily, both novels are set up in an unorthodox timeline. For instance, in The Unbearable Lightness of Being, Kundera allows the reader to see Sabina's reaction to Tomas and Tereza's death long before we get close to the end of their story. In a similar manner, Marquez opens up his novel with Aureliano facing the firing squad, giving us insight to what will eventually happen later on in time. There are in fact many more examples of this funky time order in both novels, but i just wanted to point out Kundera and Marquez's simmilarities in messing up chronology.
