Full of philosophical puzzles and supernatural surprises, these
stories contain some of Borges's most fully realized human
characters. With uncanny insight he takes us inside the minds of an
unrepentant Nazi, an imprisoned Mayan priest, fanatical Christian
theologians, a woman plotting vengeance on her father's "killer,"
and a man awaiting his assassin in a Buenos Aires guest house. This
volume also contains the hauntingly brief vignettes about literary
imagination and personal identity collected in The Maker, which
Borges wrote as failing eyesight and public fame began to undermine
his sense of self.
