Ficciones

Ficciones is a collection of short stories by postmodernist Argentinian author Jorge Luis Borges. It contains snippets, stories, and thought experiments highlighting the author's gift for metaphysical commentary and his impressive command of an expansive catalogue of world literature, philosophy and esoterism. The Ficciones' literary meanderings in and out of cyclical temporalities, infinite libraries, distant lands and metatextual realities make it a rich compendium perfect for summertime (and year-long) escape. The vignettes are absorbing and cerebral, dream-like, but self-contained and short enough to digest as one goes about one's summer activities.
