For the first time in English, all the fiction by the writer who has been called "the greatest Spanish-language writer of our century" collected in a single volumen. From Jorge Luis Borges's 1935 debut with The Universal History of Iniquity , through his immensely influential collections Ficciones and The Aleph , these enigmatic, elaborate, imaginative inventions display his talent for turning fiction on its head by playing with form and genre and toying with language. Together these incomparable works comprise the perfect one-volume compendium for all those who have long loved Borges, and a superb introduction to the master's work for those who have yet to discover this singular genius.
Translated from the Spanish to English.
