About the author
Jorge Luis Borges
1,588 books14.3k followersJorge Francisco Isidoro Luis Borges Acevedo was an Argentine short-story writer, essayist, poet and translator regarded as a key figure in Spanish-language and international literature. His best-known works, Ficciones (transl. Fictions) and El Aleph (transl. The Aleph), published in the 1940s, are collections of short stories exploring motifs such as dreams, labyrinths, chance, infinity, archives, mirrors, fictional writers and mythology. Borges's works have contributed to philosophical literature and the fantasy genre, and have had a major influence on the magic realist movement in 20th century Latin American literature.
Born in Buenos Aires, Borges later moved with his family to Switzerland in 1914, where he studied at the Collège de Genève. The family travelled widely in Europe, including Spain. On his return to Argentina in 1921, Borges began publishing his poems and essays in surrealist literary journals. He also worked as a librarian and public lecturer. In 1955, he was appointed director of the National Public Library and professor of English Literature at the University of Buenos Aires. He became completely blind by the age of 55. Scholars have suggested that his progressive blindness helped him to create innovative literary symbols through imagination. By the 1960s, his work was translated and published widely in the United States and Europe. Borges himself was fluent in several languages.
In 1961, he came to international attention when he received the first Formentor Prize, which he shared with Samuel Beckett. In 1971, he won the Jerusalem Prize. His international reputation was consolidated in the 1960s, aided by the growing number of English translations, the Latin American Boom, and by the success of Gabriel García Márquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude. He dedicated his final work, The Conspirators, to the city of Geneva, Switzerland. Writer and essayist J.M. Coetzee said of him: "He, more than anyone, renovated the language of fiction and thus opened the way to a remarkable generation of Spanish-American novelists."

"Ягаан булангийн хүн"-ийг өмнө нь уншиж байж. Бүх өгүүллэг нь шинэлэг. Тэгээд бас Борхес үнэхээр уран сэтгэмж сайтай юм аа.

Орчуулга нь маруухан байв уу эсвэл хам сэдэв тухайн үеийн аж амьдралын талаар огтхон ч төсөөлөлгүй болохоор ухаж ойлгогдсонгүй юу ямартай ч ийм нимгэхэн номыг зовж байж уншиж дуусгалаа. Уншигчдад ямар мессеж өгөх гэсэн, утга авцалдаа нь юу болохыг үнэндээ ойлгосонгүй.
Магадгүй хорвоо ертөнц гэдэг сайн, муу сүлэлдсэн байдгийг эдгээр “жигшүүрт” түүхүүдээр уншигчдад мэдрүүлэх гэсэн юм боловуудаа. Хар нялхаасаа алан хядлага, цус нөжтэй кино бишгүй үзсэн болохоор түүхүүд нь бас тийм ч жигшүүртэй санагдаж сэтгэлийн утас хөндөөд байсан юм алга.
Латин америк ард түмэнд уншаад арай өөр сэтгэгдэл төрдөг байх.
