A distinguished Argentine poet and essayist and one of the finest writers of short stories in world letters, Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986) deliberately and regularly altered his work by extensive revision. In this volume, renowned Borges scholar Daniel Balderston undertakes to piece together Borges’s creative process through the marks he left on paper.
