About the author

Jorge Luis Borges
Jorge Luis Borges

Jorge Luis Borges was an Argentine author whose short fictions created the blueprint for postmodern and meta-literary science fiction. The Garden of Forking Paths imagines a novel that contains all possible narratives, anticipating the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics. His labyrinths, libraries, and mirrors have influenced virtually every significant writer in speculative fiction.
