Hey /lit/. Whats the best Borges translation?Is pic related any good or should I get Ficciones translated by Kerrigan.Also why is the hardcover edition of Collected Fictions cheaper than the paperback, its usually the other way around
Dont read translations
Only acceptable way to read Borges is in Spanish, hermanito.

Read it anyway in the language of your choice.
As the thread says I'm asking for the bestmost accurateenglish translation.There are also some differences between the two edition, Collected fictions being much larger, having as far as I can tell more or different content
