A different kind of love story,
By
This review is from: Travesuras de la nina mala / The Bad Girl (Narrativa (Punto de Lectura)) (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
As one of the reviewers said before, the first chapter of this book is not necessarily Vargas Llosa's best writing, I didn't even care much for his development of the characters up until this point. However, once you get past this point, it is simply a wonderful, and unusual love story, which you cannot wait to see the end to, you'll also easily relate to the characters in this. Sure, it is no Wuthering Heights, if that is what you're looking for in a love story, but this novel contains some of MVL's best writing and some of his best characters. I highly recommend it!

El que persevera triunfa,
By Veronica La Rosa (Miami Beach, Florida USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Travesuras de la nina mala / The Bad Girl (Narrativa (Punto de Lectura)) (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
Así titulo el review no solo como moraleja del libro sino, como frase clave para el lector. Este libro se hace un poco tedioso durante todo el primer capitulo - hasta la pagina 102- por lo que dan ganas de dejarlo y no proseguir mas con la lectura, ya que uno no anticipa nada realmente emocionante o cautivante en esta historia. Pero si uno continua (persevera) se da con la alegre sorpresa de que la historia se va tornando emocionante e inverosímil.
En cuanto a la narrativa, es difícil encontrar errores en los escritos de Vargas llosa, mas cabe destacar que por momentos se torna meloso y repetitivo. Otro detalle importante es la sobrepoblacion de diminutivos en el vocabulario del personaje principal -Ricardo Somocurcio-. Se lo atribuyo a querer plasmar de manera muy clara el habla de la gente de Lima-Peru, lo cual es muy cierto, pero creo que llega un momento que como lector incomoda la cantidad de diminutivos con los que Vargas llosa nos bombardea en este libro. Vale la pena leer este libro, no es la mejor obra de Vargas Llosa pero al menos entretiene.

Pretentious,

This review is from: Travesuras de la nina mala / The Bad Girl (Narrativa (Punto de Lectura)) (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
Mario Vargas Llosa dissappoints with this pretentious novel. He uses a lot of French for which there is no translation, and assumes the reader knows what he is talking about. I had to skip through a lot of the novel as it smelled like he wanted the reader to know he's been to Paris and is, indeed, cultured.
I have greatly enjoyed his other works and think of them as masterpieces but this one trully dissappoints.

Este libro es uno de mis favoritos, y en mi opinión uno de los mejores de Mario Vargas Llosa, se lo he recomendado a muchas personas y a todos les gustó tanto como a mí, la historia es muy entretenida y dulce. Estoy segura que muchas personas se pueden identificar con el protagonista.
