French jew born in Algeria on April 8th 1935, one year before Mario Vargas Llosa, Albert Bensoussan is a French writer, translator and academic teacher, who became the official translator of Mario Vargas Llosa’s novels after his translation into French of Los cachorros (1974), and after his introduction to the French version of La ciudad y los perros (1966).
