Reseña: WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE A New York Times Notable Book of 2007 Splendid suspenseful and irresistible . . . A contemporary love story that explores the mores of the urban 1960s--and 70s and 80s.--The New York Times Book Review Ricardo Somocurcio is in love with a bad girl. He loves her as a teenager known as Lily in Lima in 1950 when she flits into his life one summer and disappears again without explanation. He loves her still when she reappears as a revolutionary in 1960s Paris then later as Mrs. Richardson the wife of a wealthy Englishman and again as the mistress of a sinister Japanese businessman in Tokyo. However poorly she treats him he is doomed to worship her. Charting Ricardos expatriate life through his romances with this shape-shifting woman Vargas Llosa has created a beguiling epic romance about the life-altering power of obsession.
