Book Review of Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter

Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter
marguerite avatar reviewed on + 2 more book reviews


Unique love story set in Lima. First published in 1977. The first couple of chapters left me wondering; then I was hooked. Marito is a young student who works at a radio station to put himself through law school. Among his job responsibilities is keeping tabs on the radio soap opera writer Pedro Camacho, one of the more astonishing literary characters I've met. When sexy Aunt Julia comes to visit, Marito barely has time for his studies. Some adult content.
