Borges at Eighty: Conversations

By Jorge Luis Borges & Willis Barnstone

Release : 2013-06-26

Genre : Literary Criticism, Books, Fiction & Literature

Kind : ebook

(0 ratings)
A collection of interviews now available from New Directions for the first time
The words of a genius: Borges at Eighty transcends our expectations of ordinary conversation. In these interviews with Barnstone, Dick Cavett, and Alastair Reid, Borges touches on favorite writers (Whitman, Poe, Emerson) and familiar themes — labyrinths, mystic experiences, and death — and always with great, throw-away humor. For example, discussing nightmares, he concludes,“When I wake up, I wake to something worse. It’s the astonishment of being myself.”
