November 23rd Meeting on "The Garden of Forking Paths," by Borges

Great Argentinian author Jorge Luis Borges (1900-86) called his imaginative writings "ficciónes." In English that translates to "fictions," but the Spanish conveys a unique Borgesian flavor.  Next Monday the Group takes up Borges's "The Garden of Forking Paths," ("El jardín de senderos que se bifurcan" in Spanish).  Below is an aid to understanding "The Garden of Forking Paths," which I have prepared to help us grasp the relationships of the key characters in the piece.
