A literary guide to Argentina by its most famous writer Jorge Luis Borges wrote about Argentina as only someone passionate about his homeland can. On Argentina reveals the many facets of his passion in essays poems and stories through which he sought to bring Argentina forward on the world stage and to do for Buenos Aires what James Joyce did for Dublin. In colorful pieces on the tango and the gaucho on the card game truco and on the criollos (immigrants from Spain) and compadritos (street-corner thugs) we gain insight not only into unique aspects of Argentine culture but also into the intellect and values of one of Latin America s most influential writers.
