"El prologo es un genero literario sujeto a ciertas leyes que los tratadistas no han definido pero que todos, de algun modo, sabemos. Debe ser categorico, debe ser solemne y debe ostentar ese rigor que es propio de las paginas antologicas." Jorge Luis Borges prologo incontables libros a lo largo de su vida. En este volumen se recogen los prologos dispersos que escribio entre 1957 y 1985. Se agregan las palabras de presentacion de libros, en algunos casos publicadas como prologos, los textos que acompanan libros ilustrados y los que figuran en catalogos de exposiciones de pintores celebres, como Xul Solar. Al recorrer El circulo secreto que forman estas prosas intemporales, el lector descubrira facilmente un Borges intimo y coloquial que discurre sobre Shakespeare y la milonga, los gauchos y las sagas escandinavas, la patria y el amor.

Inmerso en los intricados laberintos de la moral humana, la ética, la justicia, el conocimiento científico y el uso de los mismos con propósitos ulteriores, el autor nos adentra en un mundo cuasi mágico en el que nuestros sentidos nos dictarán el desenlace del crimen cometido. Cada lector tendrá la oportunidad de sentir a flor de piel cada instancia de los acontecimientos en la vida de los personajes que el autor retrata con sus letras. Un grupo de jóvenes estudiantes adolescentes cuyos talentos se combinan, creando un círculo de hermandad y un código secreto el cual unirá sus vidas y cambiará el curso de éstos para siempre. Ese hermetismo y complicidad, con el tiempo logra transformar ese código en el instrumento y causal de un crudo y escalofriante crimen. Sigfredo Soto nos plantea la distorsión que pueden sufrir nuestras estructuras sociales, morales, éticas, religiosas y de justicia cuando son arropadas por el deseo de poder, venganza y ambición. ¿Lograrán la justicia y el bien prevalecer?

"The face of Borges most widely known is that of the blind, patrician man of letters in whose writings emotion is subjected to the play of ideas. Yet Borges, born in Buenos Aires in 1899, did not become virtually blind until the 1950s, and in the decades before this affliction and before his books were widely translated and internationally celebrated, he wrote, loved and engage in local polemics with adventurous passion." "In Jorge Luis Borges, Jason Wilson explores Borges' tumultuous early life in the streets and cafes of Buenos Aires and charts his literary friendships, love affairs and travels. Borges claimed never to have invented a character: 'It's always me, subtly disguised.' Illuminating the connections running between the biography and the fictions, Wilson reminds us that Borges was always a poet whose life was recreated in his work - but never in confessional ways - and restores his Argentine roots. This book will be an invaluable resource for all who treasure the modern master."--BOOK JACKET.
