A Personal Anthology
ByPublisher Description
After almost a half a century of scrupulous devotion to his art, Jorge Luis Borges personally compiled this anthology of his work—short stories, essays, poems, and brief mordant "sketches," which, in Borges's hands, take on the dimensions of a genre unique in modern letters.
In this anthology, the author has put together those pieces on which he would like his reputation to rest; they are not arranged chronologically, but with an eye to their "sympathies and differences."
, therefore, is not merely a collection, but a new composition.
"An important work, by far the best yet available to the reader . . . who seeks a representative sampling of the great Argentine writer . . . the standard introduction to Borges in England and the United States." —

“Bunga rampai yang terdiri dari cerpen, esai, dan puisi yang dikurasi secara personal oleh Borges sendiri. Mencantumkan juga karya2nya yang terkenal: The Zahir, The Aleph, Funes the Memorious, dsb. Masih bintang 4 karena aku kurang paham tentang banyak hal yang ditulisnya, terlebih pada esai dan puisinya (It's on me, of course)”
