About the author

Jorge Francisco Isidoro Luis Borges KBE (/ˈbɔːrhɛs/; Spanish: [ˈxorxe ˈlwis ˈborxes] 24 August 1899 - 14 June 1986), was an Argentine short-story writer, essayist, poet and translator, and a key figure in Spanish language literature. His work embraces the "character of unreality in all literature". His best-known books, Ficciones (Fictions) and El Aleph (The Aleph), published in the 1940s, are compilations of short stories interconnected by common themes, including dreams, labyrinths, libraries, mirrors, fictional writers, philosophy, and religion. Literary critics have described Borges as Latin America's monumental writer.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2025Long been a fan of this genre, and was pleased that the stories were short enough, and book small enough, to carry with me to appointments were I expect a wait. The stories are so original and intriguing that I can reread them and enjoy the story lines, details and turns of phrase again and again.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2024Some short stories are best drank like fine wine and Mr Borges is Gran Cru.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 20184-stars for those who like the unusual. 1-star for those into pop-novels.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2024Arrived in a timely manner. Exactly as described. Girlfriend wanted this book and was very happy.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2023Excellent monograph. Thank you.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2020This is a collection of short stories, each with a unique insightful view of the way things are. I loved it.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2019Borges at his best. Years before we knew about quantum mechanics, he wrote a book of short stories that seem to suggest a multi-verse.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2018A murder mystery of literary and labyrinthine proportions. When you meet Borges in the Afterlife, you'll want to be sure what time it is and where it will be!

5.0 out of 5 stars multidimensional
so few words yet so great thoughts weaven into breathless stories!

5.0 out of 5 stars Cute cover, great as small gifts
As someone who is studying Spanish literature, I love gifting these cute editions of Jorge Luis Borges stories in English to introduce some of my friends to this great author. The whole Penguin Modern Classics series is super cute as a little literary gift or party favour, and often (though not so much in this case) introduces you to lesser-known short works by well-known authors.
