Nobel author Mario Vargas Llosa now available on Kindle
A number of Mario Vargas Llosa's works are now available on Kindle.

Most of my collection of English First Editions are in a climate-controlled storage, so I was happy to see that Kindle now has some of his works available.

After he won the Nobel Prize in Literature, there was nothing available in an ebook format.

If you enjoy some outstanding (and challenging) literature, then I highly recommend his work.

Great news!

Now - if only Jorge Luis Borges would get "Kindle-ized"!

Thank you Don. This is the second time that I stumble upon Mario Vargas Llosa in few days. So this is destiny that is talking to me. I never read anything of him yet. But he sponsored the last book I read "Nobility of Spirit: A Forgotten Ideal" by Rob Riemen and now your note.
I checked on Amazon and I found 3 books, not in Espanol.

The bad girl
Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter
The Feast of the Goat

Which one to buy and to read? Do you feel like advising me?

There are a lot more than 3 in English, but they're all spread out and intermixed with the Spanish editions for some reason.

Go through all the screens.

I would recommend "Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter" as a first read. It's a very accessible read and a lot of fun.
