ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A Master Class about current events and the craft of a novelist by Nobel Prize winner Mario Vargas Llosa.

During a semester in 2015 Vargas Llosa taught a course at Princeton University. In it he spoke with the students about literature and current affairs. Along with the students and with Rubén Gallo, director of Princeton?s Latin American Studies Program, Vargas Llosa performed an in-depth analysis of five of his works.

This book gathers these conversations in which the Nobel Prize winner, with his habitual wisdom and brilliance, speaks of the craft of the writer and about challenges that he faces when in the process of creating his novels. But it also offers an analysis of current times.
