Borges

Maria Borges, an African model in her second VS show, said everyone back home in Angola would be watching her.

Still other critics are baffled that Borges was influenced by such strange and disparate sources.

Over the next couple of years, though, some felt a letdown when they discovered that Borges had written no long works.

Borges had an almost Evelyn Waugh-like capacity for sucking up to the upper classes.

It was not a wise move, but then Borges was never known for wise moves except when writing.

In 1515 he received a sum of money to enable his sister Felipa Borges to marry.
