Book covers from the series "The library of Babel"

The Library of Babel “is a collection of readings, re-proposed with simplicity by a great reader to readers of the new generation. Borges presented his personal canon, that of the authors he had read and loved in his youth, and which he loves to read again as an old man. Some were very famous, such as Poe or Stevenson; others, for example Lugones, Hinton, Machen first appeared in Italian thanks to this series."(G.Mariotti, “Publishing as art” from “Labirinto della Masone. Bambù, arte e delizie nel parco di Franco Maria Ricci a Fontanellato”, Ricci/ Grafiche Step Editore, 2014 Parma, p. 140)
