Product Information

Un vivo retrato el genial de Jorge Luis Borges realizado por Armando Almada Roche, que cuenta as el proceso que lo llev a escribir y publicar este maravillosos libro con estructura de reportaje: "Hasta ahora jam s me anim a publicar un libro referente a Jorge Luis Borges, aunque me mor a de ganas ya que el pa s ( y por qu no decir el orbe?) est saturado de libros de reportajes, entrevistas y di logos, de sus memorias y biograf as. Como dec a Isidoro Blaisten: "De Borges ya se ha dicho todo. Lo que el mundo entero ya sabe, lo que se podr a decir, y lo que nunca debi ser dicho". Sin embargo, sabemos que se puede decir mucho m s y ninguno ser exhaustivo. Quien esto escribe, impulsado por mi fervor, le hab a hecho m s de una docena de entrevistas, que l soportaba con esa benevolencia que s lo dispensan los grandes, precisamente para armar un libro, pero luego me ech atr s por no caer en el vicio de editar m s de lo mismo. Quer a ser original, no repetitivo. Cre a, y creo, que se ha abusado much simo publicando, la mayor a de las veces, cosas repetidas. Empero, nobleza obliga decirlo, a pesar de las insistencias algo de Borges queda en esos libros quiz prescindibles. Sus dichos y pensamientos tienen consistencia verdadera. Entonces, acobardado, guard mi manuscrito en un caj n y trat de olvidarme del tema. Pero el deseo era m s fuerte, Borges aparec a de continuo dentro de m ; no me dejaba en paz, me obsesionaba. Procur , por todos los medios, poner distancia, olvidarme. Cuando m s lo intentaba volv a a aflorar con m s energ a. Y tambi n d a y noche me preguntaba, si me decidiese a hacerlo, c mo plantearlo: un libro de entrevistas?, un reportaje largo?, Una biograf a? Las biograf as estaban hechas, y algunas por excelentes e important simas plumas. Exist an asimismo los oportunistas y mediocres que me hab an ganado de mano. Despu s de mucho cavilar, de marchas y contramarchas, evitando en lo posible la tentaci n de la soberbia, decid largarme y correr el riesgo, tal vez, de repetir lo que otros. Empec a pulir mi libro procurando no caer en lo archisabido, en lo desaprensivo y superficial (aspiraci n sin duda arrogante). Dificil sima empresa. Deb a lograr, adem s, por lo menos, cierta frescura y calidad literaria, sortear los caminos trillados. Finalmente lo encar como una suerte de reportaje (el m s vasto de los g neros en periodismo) utilizando un lenguaje period stico-literario de f cil lectura. Hoy, luego de estar guardado por d cadas en la oscuridad de una gaveta, por fin, sale a la luz. Espero poder compartir con el lector el mismo entusiasmo que me produjo la charla con Borges y el proceso posterior que culmin en la publicaci n de este libro. Armando Almada Roche
