Explanation:

To determine the narrative point of view, we analyze the passage:

• First person uses "I/we", which is not present here.
• Second person uses "you", which is also not present.
• Third person limited focuses on one character's thoughts, but here we know José Arcadio Buendía's certainty and Aureliano's memory, indicating access to multiple characters' inner thoughts and experiences, which is characteristic of third person omniscient.

Answer:

third person omniscient
