A review by umyde
Ficções by Davi Arrigucci Jr., Jorge Luis Borges

5.0

Probably Borges meta-masterpiece. A book about books, a narrative lost in narratives, with times reflecting themselves and spaces all existing simultaneously. It is also a spiral"what if?", a child's play. Maybe Kafka dreamed of the Lottery in Babylon or the Library of Babel - or maybe Borges dreamed of Kafka dreaming of Carroll dreaming of Sheherezade, herself a play of Hofstadter's mind. Who knows, but I'm glad that tigers live where tango's danced.
