Ilan Stavans: Infinity according to Jorge Luis Borges

What would it be like to have a limitless memory? Can the meaning of life be found in an infinite library? Is time a labyrinth or a single moment? Jorge Luis Borges explored these questions of infinity in his many works. His body of essays, poems and stories pioneered the literary style known as magical realism— and each was just a few pages long. Ilan Stavans dives into the world of Borges. [Directed by Aim Creative Studios, narrated by Ilan Stavans, music by Aim Creative Studios & André Aires].
