«Éste no es un manual para aprender a escribir, algo que los verdaderos escritores aprenden por sí mismos. Es un ensayo sobre la manera como nacen y se escriben las novelas, según mi experiencia personal [...]. Se trata, pues, de un libro muy personal y, en cierto modo, de una discreta autobiografía.» Mario Vargas Llosa «El escritor siente íntimamente que escribir es lo mejor que le ha pasado y puede pasarle, pues significa para él la mejor manera posible de vivir.»

Mario Vargas Llosa dirige a todos aquellos que tienen la ilusión de llegar a ser escritores unas magníficas reflexiones en forma epistolar acerca del arte de narrar. Cómo comenzar a cristalizar esa vocación en obras literarias, por dónde empezar esa aventura, de dónde salen las historias que cuentan las novelas... son algunas de las preguntas a las que el Premio Nobel de Literatura da respuesta en este libro, que se convierte así en una lección magistral del oficio de escribidor. «Detrás de esas aventuras ficticias que encienden la imaginación de los lectores y los conmueven, hay no solo intuición, fantasía, invención y una pizca de locura, sino también terquedad, disciplina, organización, estrategia, trampas y silencios, y una urdimbre compleja que levanta y sostiene en vilo la ficción.»

About the Author:
Mario Vargas Llosa, Premio Nobel de Literatura 2010, nació en Arequipa, Perú, en 1936. Aunque había estrenado un drama en Piura y publicado un libro de relatos, Los jefes, que obtuvo el Premio Leopoldo Alas, su carrera literaria cobró notoriedad con la publicación de La ciudad y los perros, Premio Biblioteca Breve (1962) y Premio de la Crítica (1963). En 1965 apareció su segunda novela, La casa verde, que obtuvo el Premio de la Crítica y el Premio Internacional Rómulo Gallegos. Posteriormente ha publicado piezas teatrales (La señorita de Tacna, Kathie y el hipopótamo, La Chunga, El loco de los balcones, Ojos bonitos, cuadros feos, Las mil noches y una noche y Los cuentos de la peste), estudios y ensayos (La orgía perpetua, La verdad de las mentiras, La tentación de lo imposible, El viaje a la ficción y La civilización del espectáculo), memorias (El pez en el agua), relatos (Los cachorros) y, sobre todo, novelas: Conversación en La Catedral, Pantaleón y las visitadoras, La tía Julia y el escribidor, La guerra del fin del mundo, Historia de Mayta, ¿Quién mató a Palomino Molero?, El hablador, Elogio de la madrastra, Lituma en los Andes, Los cuadernos de don Rigoberto, La Fiesta del Chivo, El Paraíso en la otra esquina, Travesuras de la niña mala, El sueño del celta, El héroe discreto y Cinco Esquinas. Ha obtenido los más importantes galardones literarios, desde los ya mencionados hasta el Premio Cervantes, el Príncipe de Asturias, el PEN/Nabokov y el Grinzane Cavour.
