Mario Levrero

Jorge Mario Varlotta Levrero (Montevideo, 23 January 1940 - 30 August 2004), better known as Mario Levrero was a Uruguayan author.[1] He is best known for his debut work La ciudad (1970). During his lifetime, Levrero lived in seclusion, granting only a few interviews. Only a few critics praised his work and he was considered a "writer's writer." Nowadays, studies of his work have proliferated, being regarded by some as one of the greatest Latin American writers.
