{"product_id":"the-borges-tradition-literature-criticism","title":"The Borges Tradition (Literature \u0026 criticism)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Anglo-Argentine Society's annual Jorge Luis Borges lectures were inaugurated in 1983, with Borges himself delivering the opening talk. The first set, collected in 1988 under the title In Memory of Borges, also contained work by Graham Greene and Mario Vargas Llosa.\nThe Borges Tradition, which includes essays by both imaginative writers and scholars, collects the lectures given from 1988 to 1993. The volume treats us to the subversive humour of Cuban-British novelist Guillermo Cabrera Infante; the late Angela Carter detailing Borges's imaginary zoo; Mexican writer Carlos Fuentes describing his early formative years in Buenos Aires; Simon Collier marking the 150th anniversary of the birth of W. H. Hudson; and the celebrated Argentine novelist, Adolfo Bioy-Casares, Borges's long-time friend and collaborator, holding an informal conversation with his audience.\nAppendices include an important essay by Adolfo Bioy-Casares on his work with Borges and a checklist, compiled by Jason Wilson, of Argentine literature published in English between 1988 and 1993.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fiction, History \u0026amp; Criticism\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 140\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Constable \u0026amp; Robinson Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780094738409\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Constable \u0026 Robinson Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Poor Condition — £4.78","offer_id":47908986224817,"sku":"SB-0094738408-C4","price":4.78,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/0094738408.png?v=1789366107","url":"https:\/\/sellbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-borges-tradition-literature-criticism","provider":"Sell Books .co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
