La traducción y las notas de Martín Hadis junto a las notables fotografías de Willis Barnstone completan en estas páginas el sensible retrato de ese misterio esencial de la literatura que conocemos como Borges. En la década final de su vida, Jorge Luis Borges emprendió una gira por los Estados Unidos con el fin de participar en una serie de diálogos organizados por varias de las universidades más prestigiosas de esa nación (Chicago, Indiana, Columbia, Boston, Harvard y el MIT). El recorrido traza una cartografía inquietante: Borges conversa sobre el sentido del universo con un astrofísico, sobre misticismo con un experto en cábala y sobre el difuso límite entre realidad y ficción con escritores y poetas. Asiste a un encuentro en el pen Club de Nueva York y concede incluso una entrevista a una personalidad televisiva: Dick Cavett. A lo largo de estos encuentros, el escritor argentino evoca sueños y pesadillas, sagas nórdicas, frases del inglés antiguo, la presencia del «otro» y el doble, y varios de sus autores favoritos, entre otros temas. El placer intelectual de la conversación lleva asimismo a Borges (por lo general, renuente a las confidencias) a revelar el significado de símbolos y tramas de varias de sus obras. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Martín Hadis' translation and notes, and Willis Barnstone's remarkable photographs, build a sensitive portrait of that essential literary mystery known as Borges. In the final years of his life, Borges toured the United States participating in a series of dialogues organized by several of the most prestigious universities in the country: Chicago, Indiana, Columbia, Boston, Harvard, and MIT. The tour draws a disturbing cartography. Borges talks about the meaning of the universe with an astrophysicist, about mysticism with a kabbalah scholar, and about the blurry line separating reality from fiction with writers and poets. He attends a meeting at the Pen Club in New York City, and even gives Dick Cavett a TV interview. Throughout these encounters, the Argentine writer evokes dreams and nightmares, refers to Nordic sagas and Old English quotes, reflects on alterity, and comments on many of his favorite authors. The intellectual pleasure of these conversations also leads to the usually reserved Borges to reveal the meaning of symbols and plots in several of his works.Shipping Notes

Weight Gain??
These pills are a great buy considering the ingredients aside from the coloring. Has anyone else experienced weight gain?? I'm trying to figure out if it's these vitamins or the other vitamins I'm taking.

The transformative power of stories, not checklists
Format: Hardcover
As someone familiar with previous writings from Keller and Inazu, I was eager to get this book--it did not disappoint. Both gentlemen are serious scholars, so one might have expected a weighty or dense theological treatise. Instead, they oriented the project around stories--individual stories that faithfully reflect personal versions of the grand Story of redemption, hope, beauty, truth, and justice. Rather than offering long lists of direct recommendations to other people (whose contexts will inevitably be different), these stories target the soul. As such, these stories offer vivid and practical insights to my particular context, but they do so indirectly, authentically, and inspirationally. As Keller has written elsewhere, no one changes his behavior because he's told he needs to change--he must be SHOWN. This book doesn't just tell us what authentic Christianity looks like in our polarized world, it shows us--and it does so exceptionally well. Highly recommended if you want to challenge your soul with diverse renderings of faithful living. Direct application to your life and specific recommendations for action will no doubt emerge, but they'll come from the inspiration of the Holy Spirit working through the power of Story.

So helpful and inspiring, too
Format: Hardcover
I bought both a hard copy and listened to it on Audible. As someone who is seeking to live faithfully in a world of difference in my workplace and community, this was an incredibly helpful book. I also can't help but think just how perfect this book is for our moment of national reckoning around race. NOW more than ever, folks need to read this book! I found myself weeping during Tom Lin's chapter, as I found resonance in my own experience growing up in an immigrant family, and I found myself incredibly inspired through that and so many other chapters as well. Other reviewers have critiqued the lack of specificity...for me, that was helpful, because everyone's context is so different. I was still able to take away what I needed. These are very thoughtful believers who come from very different walks of life, and it was a treat just to see the world from their view each chapter. Thank you, John Inazu and Tim Keller, for the rich contribution of this book to the Christian conversation about our place in the public sphere.
