In this collection of wise, witty and fascinating essays, Borges discusses the existence (or non-existence) of Hell, the flaws in English literary detectives, the philosophy of contradictions, and the many translators of 1001 Nights. Varied and enthralling, these pieces examine the very nature of our lives, from cinema and books to history and religion.

Sbírka esejí, která pojednává o existenci (nebo neexistenci) pekla, o nedostatcích anglických literárních detektivů, filosofii rozporů a mnoha překladatelích „1001 nocí“. Zkoumá samotnou povahu našeho života, od kina a knih, přes historii a náboženství.
