196876359Buenos Aires: Compana General Fabril editora 1968. Fine. Compana General Fabril editora Buenos Aires 1968 20 x 28.50 cm broché Second illustrated edition. Spine with some rubbing. Illustrated with drawings by Horacio Cardo. Rare presentation copy erroneously dated 1949 and signed by Jorge Luis Borges to his muse Ema Risso Platero : « à Emita con afecto innumerable. » Ema Risso Platero a Uruguayan diplomat was also a painter poet and writer notably the author of Arquitecturas del insomnio with a preface by Borges and a friend of Michel Foucault. In his book Emma karma de Borges the Uruguayan writer Fernando Loustaunau discusses the relationship between Borges and Emita and their final meeting in 1979 in Paris when the Argentine writer was in the city to receive the Gold Medal of the Académie Française. It was most likely on this occasion that Jorge Luis Borges presented this signed copy to his former muse mistakenly dating the inscription 1949 instead of 1979perhaps a nod to their shared past and enduring passions.
