Status Updates From Ficciones

The two stories after Tlon were not my favorite but I really enjoyed The Circular Ruins. Captivating writing and amazing ending as always.

There's a fair chance I'm not smart enough for this one.

This has been slow going, and I'm afraid this collection is dangerously close to going on my DNF shelf. These stories, with the exception of the Library of Babel, have almost entirely failed to grab me. Am I alone here? Any suggestions?

Tlon, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius - I wasn’t sold at first but then it hooked me. Such a creative narrative with a really immersive and detailed writing style. Truly feels real and of course the ending brought it all together. The exploration of idealism is fascinating but deeper than that this is a story about the power of ideas and worldviews in general. Very very cool.
