- Summary:
- It is through his short stories that Jorge Luis Borges best demonstrates what has come to be called the Borgesian principle: the potential for convergence and harmony that exists between the acts of reading and writing, remembering and imagining, reasoning and dreaming. A blend of narrative economy and metaphysical speculation involving many of Borges' classic themes, this timeless six-part series of dramatized fiction leads viewers into the realm of the surreal, where anything is possible--and even likely.
