âUno de los artistas contemporáneos más memorables⦠La deuda que tenemos contraÃda con él quienes escribimos en español es enormeâ. âMario Vargas Llosa
Considerado uno de los escritores más influyentes del siglo XX en cualquier idioma, la obra de Jorge Luis Borges continúa inspirando a nuevas generaciones de lectores gracias al deslumbrante poder de sus imágenes y la inmensa profundidad de sus temas.
Originalmente publicada en 1949, esta colección reúne dieciocho relatos entre los que se encuentra algunos de los más admirados cuentos de la literatura: âEl Alephâ, la clásica historia de una resplandeciente esfera en la que confluyen de un modo asombroso todos los tiempos y todos los espacios en el universo; âEl Zahirâ, una fascinante reflexión sobre la obsesión, Borges narra la historia de un objeto que inspira la fascinación inmediata de todos aquellos que lo ven hasta consumir su atención y realidad completa; y âEl Inmortalâ, un inquietante viaje a través de la Ciudad de los Inmortales, un laberÃntico mundo en el que todo, incluso los edificios y las escaleras, aparece caóticamente irregular o invertido.
Juntos, estos dieciocho relatos, cada uno singularmente original y complejo a su manera, representan una pieza clave en el museo de la obra del maestro argentino, asà como en los anales de la literatura universal.
