Journal Entry 1 by marilina85 from Ciudad de Buenos Aires (Capital Federal), Ciudad de Buenos Aires (Capital Federal) Argentina on Wednesday, March 28, 2012

For one of the attendees to the Bookcrossing Convention in Dublin...

Borges was a widely known argentine author. His most famous books, Ficciones (1944) and The Aleph (1949), are compilations of short stories interconnected by common themes such as dreams, labyrinths, libraries, mirrors, animals, fictional writers, religion and God. His works have contributed to the genre of science fiction as well as the genre of magic realism, a genre that reacted against the realism/naturalism of the nineteenth century.

Enjoy!

Brilliant, weird short stories! Lots of symbolism, countless layers, brilliantly structured, intense and magical; no easy reading. I especially enjoyed The Aleph and The Zahir.

Journal Entry 6 by judygreeneyes at San Diego, California USA on Sunday, January 27, 2013

This book arrived in San Diego with an entire package of assorted book labels and stickers, greeting cards, a book mark, and a knitted ballycumber for some yarnbombing. I'm so excited to have the knitted bally -- just need to find the right spot :) Thanks for sending this book along. I'm looking forward to my first experience of Borges!
