Krátky popis
Jorge Luis Borges's Labyrinths is a collection of short stories and
essays showcasing one of Latin America's most influential and
imaginative writers. This Penguin Modern Classics edition is edited
by Donald A. Yates and James E. Irby, with an introduction by James
E. Irby and a preface by Andre Maurois.Jorge Luis Borges was a
literary spellbinder whose tales of magic, mystery and murder are
shot through with deep philosophical paradoxes. This collection
brings together many of his stories, including the celebrated
'Library of Babel', whose infinite shelves contain every book that
could ever exist, 'Funes the Memorious' the tale of a man fated
never to forget a single detail of his life, and 'Pierre Menard,
Author of the Quixote', in which a French poet makes it his life's
work to create an identical copy of Don Quixote. In later life,
dogged by increasing blindness, Borges used essays and brief
tantalising parables to explore the enigma of time, identity and
imagination. Playful and disturbing, scholarly and seductive, his
is a haunting and utterly distinctive voice.Jorge Luis Borges
(1899-1986) was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. A poet, critic and
short story writer, he received numerous awards for his work
including the 1961 International Publisher's Prize (shared with
Samuel Beckett). He has a reasonable claim, along with Kafka and
Joyce, to be one of the most influential writers of the twentieth
century.If you enjoyed Labyrinths, you might like Franz Kafka's
