i like the Zahir, much more than i've liked any of the other stories we've read. unlike a lot of the stories we read this sort of seems like it could really happen. if it did in today's world the person would be put in a mental hospital. it also sort of reminded me of the lord of the rings, the obsession with a coin. i don't really understand why the coin would bring him to god, thats a pretty out there idea in my opinion. i still don't like how Borges writes. i always have to reread everything more than once. i wish i could write more about my reactions to these, but seriously even though i liked this story there isn't much to say.
