Handpicked works from the greatest Argentinian writer of the twentieth century.
"Without Borges the modern Latin American novel simply would not exist" (Carlos Fuentes, author and diplomat).
After almost a half a century of scrupulous devotion to his art, Jorge Luis Borges personally compiled this anthology of his work-short stories, essays, poems, and brief mordant "sketches," which, in Borges's hands, take on the dimensions of a genre unique in modern letters.
In this anthology, the author has put together those pieces on which he would like his reputation to rest; they are not arranged chronologically, but with an eye to their "sympathies and differences."
A Personal Anthology, therefore, is not merely a collection, but a new composition.
"An important work, by far the best yet available to the reader... who seeks a representative sampling of the great Argentine writer... the standard introduction to Borges in England and the United States." -
