Fictions - Jorge Luis Borges

Fictions by Jorge Luis Borges

Enter the labyrinthine mind of Jorge Luis Borges, one of the 20th century's most innovative writers. This landmark collection—combining The Garden of Forking Paths and Artifices—features mind-bending tales like "The Library of Babel," an infinite library containing every possible book; "Funes the Memorious," about a man cursed with perfect recall; and "Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius," where a fictional world begins to overwrite reality. Philosophical, playful, and profoundly original, these stories blur dreams, reality, and infinity. Buy in Kenya with fast delivery.
