Description: Ficciones Jorge Luis Borges , Anthony Kerrigan (Translator) , Anthony Bonner (Translator)(1994) The seventeen pieces in Ficciones demonstrate the whirlwind of Borges's genius and mirror the precision and potency of his intellect and inventiveness, his piercing irony, his skepticism, and his obsession with fantasy. Borges sends us on a journey into a compelling, bizarre, and profoundly resonant realm; we enter the fearful sphere of Pascal's abyss, the surreal and literal labyrinth of books, and the iconography of eternal return. To enter the worlds in Ficciones is to enter the mind of Jorge Luis Borges, wherein lies Heaven, Hell, and everything else in between.Part One: The Garden of Forking PathsPrologueTlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius (1940)The Approach to Al-Mu'tasim (1936, not included in the 1941 edition)Pierre Menard, Author of the Quixote (1939)The Circular Ruins (1940)The Lottery in Babylon (1941)An Examination of the Work of Herbert Quain (1941)The Library of Babel (1941)The Garden of Forking Paths (1941)Part Two: ArtificesPrologueFunes the Memorious (1942)The Form of the Sword (1942)Theme of the Traitor and the Hero (1944)Death and the Compass (1942)The Secret Miracle (1943)Three Versions of Judas (1944)The End (1953, 2nd edition only)The Sect of the Phoenix (1952, 2nd edition only)The South (1953, 2nd edition only) Ficciones Jorge Luis Borges , Anthony Kerrigan (Translator) , Anthony Bonner (Translator)(1994) The seventeen pieces in Ficciones demonstrate the whirlwind of Borges's genius and mirror the precision and potency of his intellect and inventiveness, his piercing irony, his skepticism, and his obsession with fantasy.
