A master class in the art of writing by one of its most
distinguished and innovative practitioners Delve into the labyrinth
of Jorge Luis Borges's thoughts on the theory and practice of
literature, and learn from one of the most influential writers of
the twentieth century not only what a writer does but also what a
writer is. For the first time ever, here is a volume that brings
together Borges's wide-ranging reflections on writers, on the
canon, on the craft of fiction and poetry, and on translation--an
ars poetica of one of the twentieth century's greatest writers.
Featuring many pieces appearing in English for the first
time--including his groundbreaking early essay on magical realism,
"Stories from Turkestan"--On Writing provides a map of both the
changes and continuities in Borges's aesthetic over the course of
his life. It is an indispensable handbook for anyone hoping to
master their own style or to witness Borges's evolution as a
writer.
