note ailie <p>I am reading the Borges collection now (I'm assuming you mean the <i>Collected Fictions</i> translated by Hurley and published by Penguin) and it is great stuff - although I did have to ask a co-worker to explain a little. It's disconcerting at first to see fiction presented in such a non-fictional manner.</p> <p>I gave my Dad the Philip K. Dick collection for Christmas this year, and promptly borrowed it to read for myself. Good stuff. The book design is nice too - peek under the dust jacket. </p> <p>Mea culpa too on <i>The Bhagavad Gita</i> - [Petruchio] ran the list by me and we both missed it (although I had earlier made him take the Bible off the fiction list!)</p> <p>(For the record, I voted for <i>Gravity's Rainbow</i>.)</p> 288462 288508
