El hablador es una novela del escritor hispano-peruano Mario Vargas Llosa, Premio Nobel de literatura 2010. Fue publicada en España en 1987 por la editorial Seix Barral. A lo largo de la narración se contrapone el mundo de las sociedades modernas con el de las tribus indígenas americanas de Perú, cuyos integrantes se encuentran fuertemente unidos a la naturaleza, y pueden comunicarse con los elementos naturales, así como con los pájaros y demás seres vivos de la selva.

The Storyteller is a novel by Peruvian author and Literature Nobel Prize winner Mario Vargas Llosa. The story tells of Saúl Zuratas, a university student who leaves civilization and becomes a "storyteller" for the Machiguenga Native Americans. The novel thematizes the Westernization of indigenous peoples through missions and through anthropological studies, and questions the perceived notion that indigenous cultures are set in stone.
