Buddhism, love, Henry James, and the tango are just a few of the topics Jorge Luis Borges, Argentina’s master writer, and extraordinary conversationalist, discusses in the first volume of the remarkable new series, Conversations. The eighty-four-year-old blind man’s wit is unending and results in lively and insightful discussions that configure a loose autobiography of a subtle, teasing mind. Borges’ favorite concepts such as time and dreaming are touched upon, but these dialogues are not a true memoir, they are unrestricted conversations about life at present.
The Argentine short-story writer, essayist, poet and translator, contributed immensely to twentieth-century literature, and more specifically to the genres of magical realism and fantasy. As he progressively lost his sight—he became completely blind by the age of fifty-five—the darkness behind his eyelids held enchanting imagery that translated into rich symbolism in his work. The inner workings of his curious mind are seen vividly in his conversations with Ferrari, and there’s not a subject on which he doesn’t cast surprising new light. As in his tale “The Other,” where two Borgeses meet up on a bench beside the River Charles, this is a dialogue between a young poet and the elder teller of tales where all experience floats in a miracle that defies linear time.
Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986), Argentine writer, poet and philosopher, is best known for his books Ficciones and The Aleph. Osvaldo Ferrari is a poet, essayist and university professor. Jason Wilson is emeritus professor at University College London.

评分一 经过了数十年的文化饥渴,八十年代终于迎来了知识热,无数的海外作品被译介,进入中国文化圈。回想起来,当年的书首印几十万册,只是一个常规印量。中国读者开始疯狂的阅读、研究、学习。 这其中,有两位拉丁美洲作家赢得了崇高声誉,写作圈几乎人手一本,一位是哥伦比亚作...
评分今天贾葭说:多读点历史书吧,不然,你不知道那些流芳后世的人穿透生命与时间的力量在哪里。 读完博尔赫斯的《最后的对话》似乎真的感觉到那种力量穿透生命与时间,带着那种观看落日的忧伤,而明显心情是愉悦的,舒畅的,世界观又被涮洗了一下,瞬间豁然。 博尔赫斯说自己的父...

评分20世纪的西班牙文学里,大概无人能与博尔赫斯比肩,20世纪的世界文坛里,博尔赫斯亦是最伟大的作家之一。而我们谈论博尔赫斯时,绕不过他新颖奇特的创作风格。在一个起点到一个终点的直线叙事的文学时代,他创作的表达方式跳出了写实叙事的传统窠臼,成为“叙事形式的反叛者”...
