Mario Vargas
Llosa wins Nobel
literature prize
By Hillel Italie
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK — Mario Vargas Llosa, the

newest winner of the Nobel Prize in literature,
has never found much honor in boundaries.
“Literature shouldn’t be secluded, provin-
cial or regional,” the Peruvian author said in
New York after Thursday’s
announcement in Sweden.
“It should be universal,
even if it has deep roots in
one place.”

Edith Grossman, the English-language trans-
