Ships with careful packing from Japan. This volume is part of the prestigious Iwanami Bunko series, one of Japan's most respected and enduring literary paperback collections. Established in 1927 by Iwanami Shoten Publishers, the Iwanami Bunko series has been instrumental in making world literature, classical Japanese texts, and important scholarly works accessible to the Japanese reading public for nearly a century. This volume belongs to the Red Band (Foreign Literature) of the Iwanami Bunko classification system.This Japanese translation of Ficciones by Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986) presents the Argentine writer's most celebrated collection of short stories, widely regarded as one of the most important and influential works of twentieth-century world literature. Borges's metaphysical fictions — labyrinths of mirrors, infinite libraries, impossible encyclopedias, and forking garden paths — explore the nature of time, identity, reality, and the written word with dazzling intellectual brilliance and compressed narrative power. Stories such as 'The Library of Babel,' 'The Garden of Forking Paths,' and 'Pierre Menard, Author of the Quixote' have become foundational texts of postmodern literature.Printed on high-quality, acid-free paper with a sewn binding that allows the book to lie flat when open, each Iwanami Bunko edition is designed for both comfortable reading and long-term preservation. The compact bunko format (A6 size, approximately 4.1 x 5.8 inches) makes it highly portable, fitting easily into a bag or coat pocket for reading on the go.Country of Origin: JapanPublisherIwanami Shoten (岩波書店) SeriesIwanami Bunko (Red Band (Foreign Literature)) Author / EditorJorge Luis Borges LanguageJapanese FormatBunko Paperback (A6, approx. 4.1 x 5.8 in / 105 x 148 mm) ISBN-104003279212 ISBN-139784003279212 Catalog Number792-1 Country of OriginJapan Shipping FedEx, Japan Post, USPS ,etc(Not available for selection) Terms of Sale *A tracking number is provided for all orders.*In principle, the package will be delivered within 4 weeks after the tracking number is uploaded, but delays may occur depending on international conditions.
