>I was pleased that Mario Vargas Llosa won the Nobel Prize in literature this week. Although he wrote more serious books, "Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter" had me hook, line, and sinker. A classic comic novel that doesn't just try to make you laugh. The scriptwriter's radio episodes become so convoluted he can't keep track of them himself and eventually kills them all off.

I looked at Vargas LLosa books and I only read the early ones :)

La ciudad y los perros 1962 - I like this one
La casa verde 1966 - I read it but forgot about it
Los cachorros 1967 - I read it but forgot about it
Conversación en La Catedral 1969 - Did not read it
Pantaleón y las visitadoras 1973 - Liked this one
La tía Julia y el escribidor 1977 - I read it but forgot about it
La guerra del fin del mundo 1981 - Loved this one

Did not read any other book from him...
