內容簡介: |
At the age of seventy, after a gap of twenty years, Jorge Luis
Borges returned to writing short stories. In "Brodieas Report," he
returned also to the style of his earlier years with its brutal
realism, nightmares, and bloodshed. Many of these stories,
including aUnworthya and aThe Other Duel, a are set in the macho
Argentinean underworld, and even the rivalries between artists are
suffused with suppressed violence. Throughout, opposing themes of
fate and free will, loyalty and betrayal, time and memory flicker
in the recesses of these compelling stories, among the best Borges
ever wrote.
