B Correct answer
Explanation

Mario Vargas Llosa, the renowned Peruvian writer and Nobel Prize laureate in Literature, authored 'Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter' in 1977. The novel is a semi-autobiographical work about a young writer who works at a radio station and his relationship with his older aunt. Ruskin Bond is an Indian author known for different works, and Jonathan is too vague to identify a specific author.

AI explanation

'Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter' (La tía Julia y el escribidor) was written by Mario Vargas Llosa, the Peruvian novelist and Nobel laureate in Literature (2010), published in 1977. It's a semi-autobiographical novel blending his own early marriage with a radio-drama-within-the-novel narrative. Ruskin Bond is an Indian author of English-language fiction unrelated to this Latin American work, and 'Jonathan' isn't a recognized author of this title, making Vargas Llosa the clear correct choice.
