With Borges

Open All Close All

http://schema.org/description

  • ""In Buenos Aires, 1964, a blind writer approaches a sixteen-year-old bookstore clerk asking if he would be interested in a part-time job reading aloud. The writer was Jorge Luis Borges, one of the world's finest literary minds; the boy was Alberto Manguel, who was later to become an internationally acclaimed author and bibliophile. The young Manguel spent several years reading aloud and transcribing for the enigmatic Borges. Here he recalls this time with integrity and warmth, offering us an intimate and moving portrait of one of the great literary luminaries."--Page 4 of cover."
  • "A. Manguel fut lecteur et homme de compagnie pour Jorge Luis Borges, devenu aveugle. Il raconte ses heures d'intimité avec l'écrivain argentin et évoque son univers littéraire, ses fréquentations amicales ou intellectuelles, ses méthodes de travail, les sorties qu'ils avaient l'habitude de faire ensemble, ses opinions politiques et esthétiques."
