Labyrinths is THE best "idea book" I know, where the author has interesting, important ideas, and presents them both quickly and artistically. I confuse this book with Ficciones a lot, but that doesn't matter, as you should read them both.

I love Borges's essays as well. At least as far as ideas go, they're even better than the stories.
