Product Description
Product Description
In May 2005 Penguin will publish 70 unique titles to celebrate the company's 70th birthday. The titles in the Pocket Penguins series are emblematic of the renowned breadth of quality of the Penguin list and will hark back to Penguin founder Allen Lane's vision of good books for all'. Jorge Luis Borges wrote playful and deeply imaginative short stories that explored philosophy, paradox and the nature of existence. Penguin Modern Classics publish all of his most famous works, including Labyrinths, The Aleph and Fictions. This collection includes seven classic Borges tales which intrigue, inspire and mesmerize through their singular genius.
