WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE

One of Latin America’s most garlanded novelists–and the recipient of the 2010 Nobel Prize in Literature–Mario Vargas Llosa is also an acute and wide-ranging cultural critic and an acerbic political commentator. Touchstones collects Vargas Llosa’s brilliant readings of seminal twentieth-century novels, from Heart of Darkness to The Tin Drum; incisive essays on political and social thinkers; and contemporary pieces on 9/11 and the immediate aftermath of the war in Iraq.

Fantastically intelligent, inspired, and surprising, Touchstones is a landmark collection of essays from one of the world’s leading writers and intellectuals.
