Collected Fictions by Jorge Luis Borges

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.

We encourage everyone to read the full book, but it's a lengthy collection, so at bare minimum, @plantimals has selected the following as the must reads that we will focus most of our discussion on:

  • Tlon, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius

  • The Circular Ruins

  • The Lottery in Babylon

  • The Library of Babel

  • The Immortal

  • The Aleph

  • The Zahir
