Borges' Oracle

This book is the closest you can get to owning a dream.

How to play: think a question, pick a card, and read Borgue's answer.

Catalina Kobelt curated twelve quotes by the acclaimed Argentinian writer Jorge Luis Borges and created an illustration for each. The result is a tarot deck that is more likely to make you reflect on your questions rather than give you specific answers.

The book consists of a handmade envelope containing twelve cards. Every part of the book is conceptualized, and you can enjoy it in different layers.

The text is bilingual, containing the original Spanish and English translations.

Catalina Kobelt was born in Lomas de Zamora and now lives in Buenos Aires, Argentina. She started making books for her older daughter. Her creations are unique because she is an autodidact inspired by the world of Bruno Munari. She introduces herself: "I'm in the illustration world, but I'm not an illustrator. I'm in the writing world, but I'm not precisely a writer. I edit, but I'm not strictly an editor. I make books that aren't books."
