Publisher's summary

«La imagen de esos primitivos habladores que recorrían los bosques llevando historias de aldea en aldea me acompañó urgiéndome cada día más a fantasear una historia a partir de ellos.»
Mario Vargas Llosa

En El hablador Mario Vargas Llosa contrapone con extraordinario virtuosismo técnico dos mundos que parecen vivir enfrentados, el de las sociedades modernas y el de los pueblos que viven en armonía con la naturaleza. A su vez conduce al lector a un viaje vertiginoso por el imaginario colectivo de los indios machiguengas, que le sirve para desarrollar, una vez más, una de sus obsesiones: el papel de la ficción en la vida de los hombres.

Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

My favorite hablador

Vargas Llosa is my favorite storyteller. I love this story set in the Amazonian jungle, among the original people, and amid the cultural life of Europe. I love the way Vargas Llosa explores the mask of our identity, the stories that tell us who we are, and the ambiguities that arise when we ask, Does anyone really own these stories, and yet, can any culture survive without them?
