The poems of A/nil are compared to the scholia Borges created in the infinite hexagonal galleries of the Library of Babel. Borges' scholia were insightful commentaries on various books, and in a similar vein, A/nil's poems are depicted as erudite and witty. They are full of questions, provoking the reader to delve deeper into their meaning and engage in… Read More
