A sharp copy of the uncommon British edition. Diefendorf (NYPL Books of the Century), p. 29. Foster A56.6. A collection of essays and short stories, and the first of Borges books to be translated into English. Ficciones "is composed of two distinct sections, The Garden of Forking Paths and Artifices. The former was first published in 1941, in Spanish, as a stand-alone collection of eight short stories, and republished with the latter under the title Ficciones in 1944. With The Aleph (1949), it is one of the twin pillars upholding Borges's reputation as one of the greatest literary artists of the twentieth century. . . . The stories of Ficciones [some of Borges's best known pieces, including "Pierre Menard, Author of the Quixote," "The Garden of Forking Paths," "The Library of Babel," "Death and the Compass," and "Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius"] had a seismic impact on the development of world literature; its aftershocks can still be felt today."

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. A Fine copy in a Near Fine price clipped dust jacket. Borges sends us on a journey into a compelling, bizarre, and profoundly resonant realm; we enter the fearful sphere of Pascal s abyss, the surreal and literal labyrinth of books, and the iconography of eternal return. More playful and approachable than the fictions themselves are Borges s Prologues, brief elucidations that offer the uninitiated a passageway into the whirlwind of Borges s genius and mirror the precision and potency of his intellect and inventiveness, his piercing irony, his skepticism, and his obsession with fantasy. To enter the worlds in Ficciones is to enter the mind of Jorge Luis Borges, wherein lies Heaven, Hell, and everything in between.

Hardcover. Condición: As New. 1st Edition. Imagine, if you will (and Borges did), a man who takes up the task of re-living the life of Cervantes, step by step, as if no time had passed, in order to write Don Quixote again for the twentieth century, word for word, but not referring to the original. Or imagine scholarly reviews of books which you might wish exist but don't. Or a dramatist, facing a firing squad, who asks God to make time stand still so he can finish his masterpiece. And God complies. These are the fictions of Borges, the famed Argentinean writer. In this edition, the geometries of Sol LeWitt match the intricacies of Borges' inventions. LeWitt has published several influential statements on the underlying theories of conceptual art . His modular cubes and grid structures, wall drawings, and serial graphics have been displayed at The Museum of Modern Art, where his work is in the permanent collection and at a major show at The Whitney Museum. Twenty two silk screens by Sol LeWitt. Edition limited to 1500 numbered copies. Each book signed by Sol LeWitt. Sol LeWitt created twenty two drawings which he calls a counterpoint to the text. He also designed the actual volume itself, from choosing the typeface to determining the size of the pages. Months were spent casting and composing the type. All the italics had to be set separately and cut in by hand. Each of the twenty two silkscreen prints were tipped in by hand. The volume is full bound in black leather. One Volume, 8¼ x 8¼ . As the publisher, we unconditionally guarantee that all books are authentic and the condition is As New (NOS). Signed by Illustrator(s).
