Jorge Luis Borges ほるへ るいす ぼるへす Winner

Ficciones is Borges’s representative short-story collection, gathering philosophical stories that unsettle the boundary between reality and fiction through motifs such as labyrinths, mirrors, and an infinite library. It combines linguistic play with intellectual depth and has had a strong impact on modern literature.

A story collection in which labyrinths and mirrors unsettle the line between reality and fiction.
