"Commemorating the hundredth anniversary of his birth, this centenary edition at last brings together all of Borges' magical stories, and all of them newly rendered into English in superb translation by Andrew Hurley. Collected Fictions is the perfect one-volume compendium for all those who have long loved Borges, and the perfect introduction to the mater's work for all those who have yet to discover him." --cover p. 2

Borges

5 stars: one of my favourite books of all time (actually probably my favourite)

This one is a collection of everything Borges wrote so I'm just rating the entire thing. If you haven't read Borges you need to go read Borges. All short stories so it's really easy to figure out if it's your thing or not. It's largely kind of science fiction adjacent - each story is about an idea - about reality, or infinity, or time or something.
