A very brief slice of Borges' writing, which should be enough to give people a taste and want more, although anyone not taken by these seven may be put off exploring more and missing out. I enjoyed them though.

I enjoyed the several stories, not all of them, though. Some were a bit vague — though I might have to reread them. I feel like all stories were big metaphors for elements of life, but I didn’t grasp all of them. The diversity of cultures in which the stories took place was very refreshing. On a slightly more negative note: there was a big absence of female character, it was an all men’s tale.

Strange, enticing and evocative, these short stories by JLB are a small taste of his thought-proviking mysteries. A quick read that says a lot.
