The Storyteller

Mario Vargas Llosa · Farrar, Straus and Giroux (US) / Faber & Faber (UK) · 1989

First English-language edition of El hablador (Seix Barral, 1987). The US FSG edition of 1989 precedes the UK Faber & Faber hardcover (1990, ISBN 0571152082, jacket by Andrzej Klimowski), so the FSG printing is the true first in English.
