He believed that "in the case of a slim majority, the preface is similar to a drunken speech or a funeral eulogy, irresponsibly exaggerated and suspicious of reading." He was determined to reform this genre. The discussion involves famous figures such as Shakespeare, Cervantes, and Whitman, as well as some writers forgotten by literary history, with the intention of rediscovering the value of their works.

Contains sixty-four prefaces, published in 1988. "This set of books that I have roughly thought of and want to write a preface to is written to please people. I did not choose according to my own literary habits, nor according to a certain tradition, a certain school, a country or an era." Using only the beauty of literature as a criterion, Borges combined the books that he "cannot put down and want to share with others" into a private collection and wrote the preface. It not only discusses famous figures such as Dostoevsky, Flaubert, Wilde, and Kafka, but also discusses authors and works that are gradually being forgotten. There are South American novelists with whom the author is most familiar, as well as relatively unknown Japanese classical literature and Nordic epics.

Borges created two collections of poems in 1965 and 1969 respectively. The six-stringed guitar is another name for the guitar. The book contains eleven poems written by Borges about guitar tunes and advises readers to make up for the music they cannot hear by imagining "a person sitting on the threshold of his house or in a store holding a guitar while playing and singing." "Ode to Shadows" is the author's fifth collection of poems. In addition to the often mentioned mirrors, labyrinths and swords, two new themes have been added: old age and ethics.
