Night Waves

on BBC Radio 3

Richard Coles presents a special edition to celebrate the centenary of the birth of Jorge Luis Borges , whose labyrinthine, dreamlike stories count among the most admired and influential of the century.
Martin Amis and Ian McEwan are among the contributors in a discussion of Borge's life and work recorded before an audience at the British Library , London. The programme includes readings from a new translation of all of Borges's fictions, including a previously untranslated work from the eighties, Shakespeare's Memory. Producer Anthony Denselow
