Jorge Luis Borges Sources and Illumination

A must for anyone interested in the work of the great Argentinian writer, Jorge Luis Borges. Prof. Garayalde settles many of the puzzles and misinter-pretations of his works in a very concise and convincing account both of the Sufis and their work - with which she became familiar long before she approached Borges' own - and of the many parallels in ideas and in actual tales that are included in his work. This is an ideal introduction to Sufi thought for anyone who is searching for a greater understanding of life and him/herself through literature.De Garayalde, Giovanna is the author of 'Jorge Luis Borges Sources and Illumination' with ISBN 9780900860614 and ISBN 0900860618.
