Argentine author Jorges Borges, who wrote the innovative short story
"The Garden of Forking Paths" uses symbolism in his writing to reject many traditional conventions
that we are accustomed to, such as time and the concept of singular existence.
The hypertext adaptation of
"The Garden of Forking Paths"
does not necessarily provide a full comprehensive picture of Borges' tale unless you are familiar with the story,
however, it yields a complimentary labyrinth-like experience that mimics the work itself
therefore increasing the readers discovery of the infinite layers and possiblities existing in
"The Garden of Forking Paths".
