El hacedor

El Hacedor El Hacedor by Jorge Luis Borges. Emecé.

Half short stories, half poems, including "Poema de los dones" with the famous lines:

...Dios, que con su magnifica ironía
me dio a la vez los libros y la noche.


written around the time of his appointment to the Biblioteca Nacional de Buenos Aires and his final lapse into blindness.
