Borges at his best! Captures the magic and wonder of childhood. A bit dense in places, but worth the effort.

I enjoyed the book, the descriptions of the land were amazing. However, I felt it lacked a certain pull.

Intriguing glimpse into childhood during wartime. Some of the imagery was stunning, but I struggled to fully connect with the narrator.

Interesting concept, but I couldn’t fully get into it. The writing style felt a bit detached from the story. I wished for more.

A beautiful, nostalgic trip. Borges’ writing is as evocative as ever, but I found some sections a little slow-paced. Overall, a worthwhile read for Borges fans.

Lovely prose, but I wish there was more historical context provided. Still, a fascinating look at Egypt through a child’s eyes.

Not my favorite Borges, but still a worthwhile read. The descriptions of Egypt are gorgeous, but the story felt a little thin.
