Description

Collected Fictions brings together all of Jorge Luis Borges's magical stories in a single volume, newly rendered into English in brilliant translations by Andrew Hurley. This is a perfect one-volume compendium for those who have long loved Borges, and a superb introduction to the master's work for all who have yet to discover this singular genius.

Borges's fiction is a masterclass in playfully experimenting with genres and exploring the very form of the short story. From his debut in 1935 to his final work in the 1980s, he returned to his celebrated themes of dreams, duels, labyrinths, mirrors, infinite libraries, and the elusive nature of identity itself.

For over seventy-five years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world, and this Deluxe Edition is a testament to their commitment to bringing the best works to readers. With its flaps and deckle-edged paper, this edition is a beautiful addition to any bookshelf.
