He loved Buenos Aires. He lost his eyesight during the 1950's, but continued to write prolifically. His works have been translated into many languages. Brilliant, courtly, and thoughtful, Borges was director of the National Library of Argentina for many years. A month before his death he married Maria Kodama, with whom he had collaborated on his last book.
