63K0

Borges × Casares: Top Argentinian writers jointly create a collection of film scripts, published for the first time in China! "Suburbanites: Believer's Paradise" is the only script collection in "The Complete Works of Borges" and is released in China for the first time. Includes two film scripts co-written by Borges and his close friend, the famous Argentinian writer Adolfo Bioy Casares, in 1955. "Suburban" is a "heroic epic" from the late 19th century, describing the pleasures and grudges of the world; "Believer's Paradise" is a romantic comedy. These two film scripts are beyond the usual film patterns in terms of language and structure, and are Borges's attempt at a new art form.

58K0

The four-hand collaboration between literary masters Borges and Casares - "One rainy morning Bioy said to me that we should write something based on this story. I reluctantly agreed. That morning we determined the signature of the novel, Honorio Bustos Domec. "Domec is the name of one of Bioy's great-grandfathers, and Bustos is the name of one of my great-grandfathers." "New Stories of Bustos Domec" is a sequel to "The Chronicle of Bustos Domec" co-written by Argentinian writers Borges and Casares, published in 1977. The two writers continued to share the pseudonym of Bustos Domec and produced nearly ten game articles, bringing together literary giants and ordinary citizens who struggled with the world that was constantly collapsing beneath their feet onto the creative stage. What Bustos Domec says and writes is a mixture of absurd fantasy, political satire, black humor and detective reasoning.
