Faber Modern Classic: Mario Vargas Llosa won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2010, and this title is a perfect introduction to one of South America's most popular writers. This mischievous novel interweaves the story of a young Peruvian, Marito, his recently divorced Aunt Julia and Pedro, an eccentric scriptwriter. It masterfully depicts both Peru and the act of growing up in the 1950s.
