The Book of Imaginary Beings [图书] 豆瓣
Few readers will want, or be able, to resist this modern bestiary. Borges’ cunning and humorous commentary is sheer delight.

Conversations [图书] 豆瓣
Buddhism, love, Henry James, and the tango are just a few of the topics Jorge Luis Borges, Argentina’s master writer, and extraordinary conversationalist, discusses in the first volume of the remarkable new series, Conversations. The eighty-four-year-old blind man’s wit is unending and results in lively and insightful discussions that configure a loose autobiography of a subtle, teasing mind. Borges’ favorite concepts such as time and dreaming are touched upon, but these dialogues are not a true memoir, they are unrestricted conversations about life at present.
The Argentine short-story writer, essayist, poet and translator, contributed immensely to twentieth-century literature, and more specifically to the genres of magical realism and fantasy. As he progressively lost his sight—he became completely blind by the age of fifty-five—the darkness behind his eyelids held enchanting imagery that translated into rich symbolism in his work. The inner workings of his curious mind are seen vividly in his conversations with Ferrari, and there’s not a subject on which he doesn’t cast surprising new light. As in his tale “The Other,” where two Borgeses meet up on a bench beside the River Charles, this is a dialogue between a young poet and the elder teller of tales where all experience floats in a miracle that defies linear time.

“Yo vivo, yo me dejo vivir, para que Borge pueda tramar su literatura y esa literatura me justifica”. —De “Borges y yo”
Considerado por el mismo Borges como su libro más personal, El hacedor explora la relación entre el mundo interior y exterior del artista, el misterioso espacio entre sus sueños y la vida real. Un maravilloso cruce de géneros y temáticas, los relatos, ensayos y poemas de esta colección reflejan muchas de las preocupaciones centrales que recorren toda la obra borgiana. En fascinantes escritos como “Diálogo sobre un diálogo”, “La trama”, “Dreamtigers”, y “Borges y yo”, entre otros muchos, Borges examina la serenidad de la mente creativa, el espectáculo de su figura pública, y mira hacia el más allá: el mundo eterno en el que sus libros continuarán dialogando con la literatura universal mucho después de que él mismo haya desaparecido. Valorado por la crítica como una de las obras más importantes del siglo xx, El hacedor es un extraordinario ejemplo del poder del maestro argentino, el alcance de su visión creativa y su inagotable contribución a la literatura.

Borges at Eighty [图书] 豆瓣 Goodreads
A collection of interviews now available from New Directions for the first time The words of a Borges at Eighty transcends our expectations of ordinary conversation. In these interviews with Barnstone, Dick Cavett, and Alastair Reid, Borges touches on favorite writers (Whitman, Poe, Emerson) and familiar themes ― labyrinths, mystic experiences, and death ― and always with great, throw-away humor. For example, discussing nightmares, he concludes,“When I wake up, I wake to something worse. It’s the astonishment of being myself.” 8 Black and white photographs

Labyrinths [图书] 豆瓣
Take a new look at Labyrinths , the classic by Latin America's finest writer of the twentieth century—a true literary sensation—with cyber-author William Gibson.
The groundbreaking trans-genre work of Argentinian writer Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986) has been insinuating itself into the structure, stance, and very breath of world literature for well over half a century. Multi-layered, self-referential, elusive, and allusive writing is now frequently labeled Borgesian. Umberto Eco's international bestseller, The Name of the Rose , is, on one level, an elaborate improvisation on Borges' fiction "The Library," which American readers first encountered in the original 1962 New Directions publication of Labyrinths .
This new edition of Labyrinths , the classic representative selection of Borges' writing edited by Donald A. Yates and James E. Irby (in translations by themselves and others), includes the text of the original edition (as augmented in 1964) as well as Irby's biographical and critical essay, a poignant tribute by André Maurois, and a chronology of the author's life. Borges enthusiast William Gibson has contributed a new introduction bringing Borges' influence and importance into the twenty-first century.
