The Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges is undoubtedly one of the
defining voices of our age. Since the Second World War, his work
has had an enormous impact on generations of writers, philosophers
and literary theorists. This clear and accessibly written guide
offers a close reading of ten of Borges' greatest short stories,
seeking to bring out the logic that has made his work so
influential. The main section of the guide offers an analysis of
such key terms in Borges' work as "labyrinth" and the "infinite"
and analyses Borges' particular narrative strategies. This guide
also sets Borges' work within its wider literary, cultural and
intellectual contexts and provides an annotated guide to both
scholarly and popular responses to his work to assist further
reading.
