Synopsis "Selected non Fictions"

Winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award in Criticism It will come as a surprise to some readers that the greater part of Jorge Luis Borges's extraordinary writing was not in the genres of fiction or poetry, but in the various forms of non-fiction prose. His thousands of pages of essays, reviews, prologues, lectures, and notes on politics and culture--though revered in Latin America and Europe as among his finest work--have scarcely been translated into English.
Jorge Luis Borges

View Author's Page
Jorge Francisco Isidoro Luis Borges (Buenos Aires, 24 de agosto de 1899 - Ginebra, 14 de junio de 1986) fue un escritor, poeta, ensayista y traductor argentino, extensamente considerado una figura clave tanto para la literatura en habla hispana como para la literatura universal.

Sus dos libros más conocidos, Ficciones y El Aleph, publicados en los años cuarenta, son recopilaciones de cuentos conectados por temas comunes como los sueños, los laberintos, las bibliotecas, los espejos, los autores ficticios y las mitologías europeas; sus argumentos exploran ideas filosóficas relacionadas, por ejemplo, con la memoria, la eternidad, la posmodernidad y la metaficción.

La obra de Borges ha contribuido ampliamente a la literatura filosófica, al género fantástico y al posestructuralismo, e influyó profundamente en el realismo mágico de la literatura latinoamericana durante el siglo XX.
