The Modern Word
Founded to explore and celebrate “difficult” works of twentieth-century literature, The Modern Word ran from 1995–2015. Recently, a few formers editors have dedicated themselves to getting it back online, and are in the process of restoring, revising, and renewing its content here at Shipwreck Library. The following sites and pages are now live:
Jorge Luis Borges: The Garden of Forking Paths
The Garden is the oldest English-language Borges site on the Web.
