The Bad Girl

The Bad Girl

"The Bad Girl", originally published in 2006 in Spanish as "Travesuras de la niña mala", is a novel by Peruvian author Mario Vargas Llosa.

Journalist Kathryn Harrison approvingly argues that the book is a rewrite (rather than simply a recycling) of the French modernist Gustave Flaubert's classic novel "Madame Bovary" (1856). [Harvnb|Harrison|2007] In Vargas Llosa's version, the plot relates the decades-long obsession of its narrator, a Peruvian expatriate, with a woman with whom he first fell in love when both were teenagers.
