Peruvian author Mario Vargas Llosa, 74, has won the Nobel Prize in literature. Vargas Llosa won the prize “for his cartography of structures of power and his trenchant images of the individuals resistance, revolt, and defeat,” said the Swedish Academy.

Vargas Llosa felt “very moved and enthused” by the prize, said Andina, the official Peruvian news agency. He is one of Latin America’s leading novelists – his best known works being “The Green House” and “The War of the End of the World.”

Vargas Llosa will accept the prize at the December 10 ceremony in Stockholm, Sweden.
