Further information:
The title translates The Book of Imaginary Beings. "After an expedition to libraries in the city of Santos (SP), in search of wonders described by the British consul Sir Richard Burton who lived there, fifteen unknown creatures were found in the pages of an encyclopedia, in an article about masks. Under the guise of capital letters, now they are part of a continuation of Borges’ manual of zoology. This edition shows no text, just gray areas along with the capital letters." (Andante catalogue)
