Max Ubelaker Andrade Publishes on Borges

Image of Book CoverMax Ubelaker Andrade, a 2010 graduate of our doctoral program in Hispanic Language & Literatures, has completed a new book, Borges Beyond the Visible.

From the publisher:

Borges Beyond the Visible presents radically new readings of some of Jorge Luis Borges’s most celebrated stories. Focusing on the tensions between fiction and intimacy, Max Ubelaker Andrade shows how Borges employed his famous intertextual puzzles to create multilayered texts that privately transformed his personal relationships with blindness, sexuality, and suicide while publicly shaping the contours of his literary project.

Borges Beyond the Visible will be published by Penn State University Press, with a projected publication date in April 2019. Ubelaker Andrade is now an Assistant Teaching Professor in Latin American Studies at the University of Massachusetts Lowell.

Congratulations, Max!
