Review: Gave 5 star for the content as the writing of Jorge luis Borges is an enigma in itself. I have read his complete fiction and that's wonderful. This book is no less, although it is a difficult read comparatively. However, I would give just 2 star to penguin for the print quality and it's not a cheap book either and they publish many books at half the price and double the width with better size font and paper quality. Don't know what happened here. This book is printed on worst paper in penguin books I have and also have smallest of font. The cover page was also very thin. I am using a very think plastic sheet as cover to.improve it's longevity.
Review: Superb collection of Borges’ essays, including some which are not available elsewhere. Each essay has the characteristics of one of his stories. Fascinating, sometimes startling, and packed with enough erudition to keep one googling for weeks. Highly recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by D***S on 9 July 2007*

This is a wonderful collection of Borges' non-fiction. It is a marvelous book to read and ponder. The only thing I could have wished for is a larger print font. I find I have to read this one with a magnifying glass. I suppose I shouldn't complain because there is SO much material. I will give this 5 stars just for the wealth of good reading it has to offer.
