Half a century with Borges

Author's name: Mario Vargas Llosa Publisher: Al-Jamal Publications for Publishing and Distribution Publication year: 2025 Literary classification: Biographies and Memoirs About the book: This collection of articles, lectures, book reviews, and footnotes is a testimony to more than half a century of reading an author who, since I read his first stories and articles in Lima in the fifties, has been an inexhaustible source of intellectual pleasure for me. I have reread him several times, and it reflects what happens to me with other books that framed my adolescence. I was never disappointed; on the contrary, each new reading renews my enthusiasm and happiness, revealing new secrets and showing me the insight of this unique Borghesian world in its topics and its transparency and elegance in expression.
