Overview

This short and bizarre novel looks in the mirror of Jorge Luis Borges’s “The Aleph” to offer us a new reflection: the portrait, distorted by drugs, of a passion that brings back to life a woman named Vera Ortiz Beti, who is at once the Beatriz Viterbo of Borges’s story, as well as all the women from Fogwill’s stories. Esta novela corta y extraña se mira en el espejo de “El Aleph” de Jorge Luis Borges para ofrecernos un reflejo nuevo: el retrato, distorsionado por las drogas, de una pasión que devuelve a la vida a una Vera Ortiz Beti que es tanto la Beatriz Viterbo del cuento borgiano como todas las mujeres de los cuentos de Fogwill.
