“No one has claim to originality in literature; all writers are more or less faithful amanuenses of the spirit, translators and annotators of pre-existing archetypes.”
James E. Irby

“Borges once claimed that the basic device of all fantastic literature are only four in number: the work within the work, the contamination of reality by dream, the voyage in time, and the double”
James E. Irby, Labyrinths: Selected Stories & Other Writings
