Inhaltsangabe

 
Mario Vargas Llosa is one of the world's most respected and widely read living writers.  His work is marked by technical sophistication and by its alliance with a variety of trends in modern culture.  To date little criticism of his work has made use of the important developments in literary theory in the past two decades.  This book does that, analyzing Vargas Llosa's place in modern and postmodern criticism.
