Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 292 pages. Published in 2003. Retrospective collection of literary and political essays. One of the finest collections of its kind ever published in our time. The first appearance of the title in English and in the United States. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Mario Vargas Llosa's "The Language of Passion" in a felicitous English translation. His second collection of essays, most of which originally appeared in his El Pais column, "Touchstone". The title captures both Vargas Llosa's sensibility and the response that his work often elicits: He is a critic of power (and ideology) and a sensualist who also worships reason; every essay is a passionate defense of "thinking-things-through" rather than the benighted reaction-ism that both Left and Right politics finally are. Although much better-known as a novelist, Vargas Llosa's range as an essayist is breathtaking: Literature, politics, Europe, Latin America, the United States, and the relations among them all. Mario Vargas Llosa was the writer/intellectual/philosopher par excellence among the Latin-American geniuses of the so-called Boom: He refused to be categorized, labeled, and reduced by ideology. A self-described "European writer of Peruvian origin", Vargas Llosa's only equals as an essayist among Latin-American writers are Carlos Fuentes and Octavio Paz. Together with their forefather, Alejo Carpentier, the trio demonstrates the cosmopolitanism of the "Boom", a Cultural Revolution that brought Latin America out of the darkness of backwardness and provincialism into the Paradise that Jorge Luis Borges dreamt about. An absolute "must-have" title for Mario Vargas Llosa collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in red fountain pen on the half-title page by Mario Vargas Llosa. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. His specimen-signature on this copy is one of the most elegant we have ever seen. Although it is not indicated on the copy itself, this comes from the collection of a university professor. This title is a classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing (American) available online and is in fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Among "Boom" writers, Mario Vargas Llosa has been grossly under-valued for the longest time even though he rarely did public signings. The collectible value of his books will not only keep but keep going up. A rare signed copy thus. Winner of the Cervantes Prize, awarded to the greatest living writers in Spanish by the Spanish Government, in 1994. Winner of the Jerusalem Prize in 1995. Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2010. One of the greatest writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER MARIO VARGAS LLOSA TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0374183260. Signed by Author.…

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 260 pages. Published in 1998. The author's twelfth novel. Now considered a late-modern classic. The first appearance of the title in English and in the United States. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now rare. Presents Mario Vargas Llosa's "The Notebooks of Don Rigoberto" in a felicitous English translation. The sequel to "In Praise of The Stepmother". It is another heartfelt homage to the erotic novel and to Gustave Flaubert. For Vargas Llosa, erotic power is the one Good Side of the very bad side of life called power, his lifelong subject. The novel is one of several homages to Flaubert as master stylist of language and as sensualist, which began with "The Perpetual Orgy" (1975) and culminated with "The Bad Girl" (2007), his "remake" of "Madame Bovary". Mario Vargas Llosa was the writer/intellectual/philosopher par excellence among the Latin-American geniuses of the so-called Boom: He refused to be categorized, labeled, and reduced by ideology, whether it is Fascist conservatism, political correctness, or Leftist academicism, what he condemned as "authoritarianism of the Left and the Right". He considered himself an heir to the great European cultural tradition yet his work is firmly grounded in Latin America's (not just his native Peru's) history and mythology. His aesthetics and literary practice - Vargas Llosa embraced and appropriated every literary genre - prompted Roberto Bolano, his greatest successor, to consider him an inescapable influence, among a handful of others, on contemporary Latin-American literature. That is to say, to be a Latin-American writer is to become a Classical master of language and a Modernist artist, writing in language of the highest quality and reinventing literary form and convention at the same time. Literary genres are inventions of a particular culture's idea of imagination and storytelling, "templates" that Vargas Llosa transformed into "poetic tales" (in Harold Bloom's brilliant phrase). An absolute "must-have" title for Mario Vargas Llosa collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by Mario Vargas Llosa. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a late-modern classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing (American) available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Among "Boom" writers, Mario Vargas Llosa has been grossly under-valued for the longest time even though he rarely did public signings. The collectible value of his books will not only keep but keep going up. A rare signed copy thus. Winner of the Cervantes Prize, awarded to the greatest living writers in Spanish by the Spanish Government, in 1994. Winner of the Jerusalem Prize in 1995. Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2010. One of the greatest writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER MARIO VARGAS LLOSA TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0374223270. Signed by Author.…
