Getting filtered by Borges right now (Labyrinths). It's just so pretentious. And his prose is really boring at some points, too.

He's just constantly namedropping. It's really exhausting. And his manner of speech is extremely formal, even considering the time in which he wrote his stories. I want to like Borges, his concepts are always really cool, but he's not making it easy.
