![]() ![]() So this story has been with me for almost 40 years, but for several decades I couldn’t work out how to write it or what the characters’ story was.Īnother Borges story that I particularly loved was The House of Asterion. Two characters inhabited it one character understood the house instinctively and could navigate it easily and the other character could only really increase his understanding of the house by studying the first character. ![]() So at some point in the 80s I wrote a few pages about a Borgesian sort of world which consisted of a vast house in which an ocean was imprisoned. One world, for example, is an endless library (The Library of Babel). Some of the worlds he created are strange - worlds that pose philosophical questions and make you think in ways you’ve never thought before. They’re generally very short, very precise and very jewel-like. In my twenties I loved the short stories of Jorge Luis Borges. ![]()
