(2018) Borges, language and reality, Dordrecht, Springer.
The objective of this study is to squeeze out ideas from Borges's already highly harvested—but still rich—fiction by interpreting his work using the conceptual tools of physics. It aims to provide unique alternative views by using interpretative concepts from the physical sciences as well as to suggest possible scientific sources for Borges's inspiration. Although in a reading of this type it is almost inevitable to avoid the mentioning of mathematics, the writer will attempt to suppress it as much as feasible, since Borges's connection with mathematics has been treated extensively, while the same is not true of other sciences, particularly physics.
