On June 14, 1986, Jorge Luis Borges, Argentine author, died in Geneva at the age of 86. An excerpt from the article:
"Jorge Luís Borges was an Argentine writer who specialized in short stories, poems, and essays. Although he never wrote a novel, he is considered one of the most important writers of his generation, not only in his native Argentina but around the world. Often imitated but never duplicated, his innovative style and stunning concepts made him a “writer’s writer,” a favorite inspiration for storytellers everywhere."
