Jorge Luis Borges Edited by Donald A. Yates Edited by James East Irby Preface by Andre Maurois
Labyrinths: Selected Stories and Other Writings
-: Penguin Books Ltd 2000. -. Paperback. New/-. -. 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 Metamorphosis and Other Stories also available in Penguin Modern Classics. 'His is the literature of eternity' Peter Ackroyd The Times 'One of the towering figures of literature in Spanish' James Woodall Guardian 'Probably the greatest twentieth-century author never to win the Nobel Prize' Economist 288 pages 128 x 194 x 20mm 199.58g.
