Chain Of Events One Month
1,253 wordsUpon my first reading of Jorge Luis Borges Death and the Compass I found myself reacting to the chain of events not unlike the bland but efficient Inspector Treviranus. The Hotel du Nord with its hateful whiteness, numbered divisibility, and general appearance of a bordello seemed a natural place for a crime of greed and betrayal to have gone sour on a luckless criminal.
