Collected Fictions

Now, for the first time in English, all of the dazzling fictions by the great Spanish-language writer, Jorge Luis Borges, have been freshly translated and gathered into a single volume. In maddeningly ingenious stories that play with the very form of the short story itself, Borges returns again and again to his celebrated themes: dreams, labyrinths, mirrors, infinite libraries, the manipulations of chance, gaucho knife-fighters, transparent tigers and the elusive nature of identity. 'Collected Fictions' is the perfect one-volume compendium for all those who have long loved Borges's work and the perfect introduction to this extraordinary writer for all those who have yet to discover him.
