Thanks for the recommendations, I'm a huge fan of Borges. However, 'The Wind Up Bird Chronicles' didn't fascinated me and it was somewhat a chore to finish it.
I have not found anything better then Borges. Actually, it's kind of annoying because somehow reading Borges appears to have become synonymous with pretentiousness, at least to my friends, and my earnest appeals to others to read his magnificent fiction have been poorly received. But he really is so damn good!
Let me know if there's anything you'd recommend.
