Remedios the Beauty (One Hundred Years of Solitude), daughter of Arcadio and Santa Sofía de la Piedad. Said to be the most beautiful woman Macondo has ever seen, Remedios the Beauty possesses an almost supernatural beauty that drives several men to obsession and even death. Despite her extraordinary appearance, she is remarkably innocent, carefree, and indifferent to the effect she has on others. Her simple and seemingly naïve personality often leads people to underestimate her, but she remains completely unconcerned with worldly conventions. Colonel Aureliano Buendia thinks that she is more clever than what people will have first guessed.
