Thinking Aloud. Seven Evenings

Jorge Luis Borges — one of the most famous writers of the 20th century, who largely defined the shape of modern literature. Borges's texts, whether fiction, poetry, or reflections, embody a peculiar intellectual game — they are full of mysteries and fantastic images, the origins of which can be traced back to the literatures and cultures of the past. This edition includes three of Borges's books: the lecture collections “Thinking Aloud” and “Seven Evenings,” which address the most important themes for the author (“Book,” “Time,” “Poetry,” “Blindness,” etc.), as well as “Nine Essays on Dante” — a collection of texts that present a new perspective on the love and creativity of the great Italian poet of the Renaissance.
