The Story of the Storyteller: <i>La tía Julia y el escribidor</i>, <i>Historia de Mayta</i>, and <i>El hablador</i> by Mario Vargas Llosa: Portada Hispánica, cartea 1

Autor Jean O'Bryan-Knight
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 1994
This book traces the history of an engaging character, a writer, who acts as the narrator and protagonist of three of Vargas Llosa's novels. InLa tía Julia y el escribidorhe recalls his apprenticeship, inHistoria de Maytahe reflects upon the practice of his craft, and inEl habladorhe ponders the significance of his vocation. That this fictional character closely resembles his flesh-and-blood creator only adds to his allure. Because the three novels in question have such strong structural and thematic links, it proves quite helpful to conceive of them as a trilogy. Indeed, the connections are so pronounced that a significant synergistic effect results from considering the three together. It is this effect that this volume brings light as it analyzes how each novel functions as a separate entity, how these entities are integrated into a greater whole, and how this whole fits into the wider picture of the Peruvian author's long and prolific literary career. As students and scholars alike will find, thinking in terms of a trilogy greatly enhances our understanding and appreciation of Vargas Llosa's rich narrative.
