Hello, my friend Aibi Aichang 614.
The following is relevant information about Argentine writer Borges: Jorge Luis Borges (1899~1986) Argentine poet, novelist and translator.
Borges's major works include the collection of poems "The Passion of Buenos Aires" (1923), "The Moon in Front of Me" (1925), "St. Martin Card Exercise Book" (1929), "Ode to Shadows" (1969)
), "The Goldenness of the Tiger" (1972), "The Deep Rose" (1975), short story collection "The Biography of the Villain" (1937), "The Garden of Forking Paths" (1941), "Aleph" (1949)
, "Death and the Compass" (1951), "Brother's Report" (1970), etc.
There are also translations of works by Kafka, Faulkner and others.
The style of his works is clean and neat, the words are concise, the conception is strange, and the structure is exquisite. The plots of the novels are often unfolded in the exotic oriental background. They are absurd and full of fantasy, with a strong mysterious color.
