They say reality is sometimes stranger than fiction. Others are so intertwined that it is difficult to distinguish where one begins and the other ends. Ask Mario Vargas Llosa, a famous writer and recent protagonist of a love story with Isabel Preysler, Miraflores, which even contains the name of the scene in its famous and fantastical coincidences alone. The story began in Lima’s Miraflores district; here one can visit the “Vargasllosian universe” by visiting with municipal pride the places where “the author had his first love affairs”, and today it must inevitably include another Miraflores 10,000 kilometers away; in Puerta del Hierro, the urbanization of Madrid that the author slammed the door a few days ago.

“In those distant times, I was very young and living with my grandparents in a white-walled cottage on Calle Ocharán in Miraflores” began in 1977. Recounting the adventures of a young writer and his love affair with his aunt Julia, who is ten years older than him, he wrote to his cousin Patricia – when he fell in love with his daughter Patricia – shortly after his divorce from his aunt Julia – then his mother-in-law and now his father-in-law – ten years old. the person they accepted into their home at their five-year tender.

With who knows what purpose Vargas Llosa did not hesitate to dedicate the book to his ex-wife: “To Julia Urquidi Illane, to whom I and this novel owe a great deal,” and to whom he would later sell the rights. 101 episodes of a soap opera this further compressed the passion of the hawks surrounding marriage. The first, also as a writer, responded in 1987 with another book: “What Varguitas Didn’t Say”, “What Varguitas Didn’t Say” in which the facts about the claim and betrayal were gladly posted in his version. The writer, who will be more or less what the tabloids throw at us these days, is making money from the enthusiasm of the hearts and the broken pride of his own truth to be known.

“It was enough to see Patricia again for a second to confirm this proof in myself. Vargas Llosa wrote a letter to his divorce-seeking aunt Julia saying, “I don’t love anyone else, I’ll never love anyone else.” And sometimes, no one is forever while a love lasts, a second, even a nanosecond, is all it takes for a heart to break. tamara falcoIsabel Preysler’s daughter and celebrity chef warned her after the release of footage of her fiancé forgetting what was promised with someone else: “I don’t care if it’s six seconds or a nanosecond in the metaverse. One way or another, it’s over.” And it’s over, because if there’s one thing we chefs and Aunt Julia know, it’s that when eggs or a promise go wrong, the best thing you can do is throw them away.

Backed then by all Spain, poor Tamara took the pieces of her heart and took them to Miraflores – not the one in Lima, the other – but to show that bad decisions can be made. At an ultra-Catholic convention in Mexico, blind with love and full of faith, he said: “We are now living in a very difficult time for humanity, there are so many different kinds of sexuality, there are so many. “Places where you can do evil” caused the anger of all LGTBI groups. , but also a sudden attack of embarrassment, except for Vargas Llosa, who, according to magazines, said we’ve gone this far with his hands to his head.Of course his peripheral version.The author was envious of her popularity, Nobel Prize in Literature, Cervantes Prize, Princess of Asturias Prize – “Among a long list of awards, she was tired of being seen in the press with headlines like “Isabel.” Preysler, ex Julio Iglesias, ex Marquess of Griñón, and widow of ex-Minister Miguel Boyer, wears a beautiful dress with her new boyfriend.”

What is the moral side of all this? They will be relieved to see this. the rich also cry that the winter season has come to Miraflores. My exes will breathe a sigh of relief because it’s unlikely that Lecturas or Netflix will be interested in this story where I’m going to demand yes or yes to Angelina Jolie or Carmen Machi commenting on me. Maybe it serves to remind us that versions are like donkeys: we all have one, and the wolf is always the bad guy if they’re only interviewing Little Red Riding Hood on Hello. However, since we are in an election year, I would not like to end without bringing you the words of a Nobel Prize winner and a recently single person at the 2021 People’s Party Congress, which he attended today in support of Pablo Casado. Illegal: “The important thing in elections is not to have freedom in those elections, but to be able to vote well. Those who voted badly will pay a heavy price.” END.
