Description: This RARE UNREAD book is about as close to perfect as it can be outside of its original plastic seal. It seems like it was barely ever touched. It even comes with its Collector’s Notes and an unattached Easton Press matching bookplate. Ficciones (in English: "Fictions") is a collection of short stories by Argentine writer and poet Jorge Luis Borges, originally written and published in Spanish between 1941 and 1956. Ficciones emphasizes and calls attention to its fictional nature. The choice and use of literary devices are conspicuous in the stories. The labyrinth is a recurring motif throughout the stories. It is used as a metaphor to represent a variety of things: the overwhelmingly complex nature of worlds and the systems that exist on them, human enterprises, the physical and mental aspects of humans, and abstract concepts such as time. Ficciones became Borges's most famous book and made him known worldwide.
