ALEPH, L'
ALEPH, L' | Jorge Luis Borges
15 posts | 20 read | 9 to read
Un pensiero insieme lucido e appassionato guida questi racconti, nei quali un'invenzione ardente e temeraria tocca, con esito spesso drammatico e patetico, temi universali - il tempo, l'eternit, la morte, la personalit e il suo sdoppiamento, la pazzia, il dolore, il destino. Temi universali, uniti al sentimento dell'unicit irripetibile dell'esperienza individuale, in uno scrittore che si presenta, innanzitutto, sotto l'aspetto dell'eleganza.

I haven't done a Spanish book recommendation in a while. This book is one of the best by Argentinan writer Jorge Luis Borges. He was highly knowledgeable and his writing shows it. Plus, he imagined heaven as some sort of library. #translation #latinamerica

Borges. Wow. I hadn't read him since college, and I'm sad I missed out for so long. Also, I didn't mean to take such a creepy photo...

Reading this one in #spanish, and it's been intimidating me since I bought it 6 weeks ago. But there's no better way to start it than with a delicious pisco sour! #authorsfromsamerica
