Mario Vargas Llosa

Writer

Peruvian novelist, essayist and journalist, awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature (2010).

Born Jorge Mario Pedro Vargas Llosa in Arequipa, Peru (1936). Nobel Prize in Literature, 2010. Holds Peruvian and Spanish nationality.

Two reviews on DeBaser examine Vargas Llosa's reconstructions of political and historical subjects: Trujillo's Dominican Republic in La Festa del Caprone and the life of Roger Casement in Il sogno del Celta. Reviewers highlight moral complexity, humanized portrayals, and the novels' engagement with colonial violence and political betrayal. One reviewer strongly recommends Il sogno del Celta to passionate readers.

For:Readers of literary fiction, historical and political novels, and literary biography.

 The Dominican Republic, a Caribbean paradise favored by Italian vacationers, in its recent history, like much of Latin America, experienced a period of military dictatorship.
