This project presents to the reader the Jorge Luis Borges works. I chose 3 stories and, using them, I want to show you what philosophical ideas Borges raises in his work, what these stories could mean, and how they could be interpreted to explain some aspects of our lives, our habits, and beliefs.

Valery Kropotin Thanks for this magnificent project! Your idea and the way of presenting are extremely creative:)
I was impressed and a little bit confused by the structure of your site. Your pages are clearly developed but as a new reader I need to spend some time to understand the logic of your construction. You put direct links to the two out of five main topics on the HOME page and also indirect links to books. I suggest you add several sentences at the bottom of the HOME page about main topics and their order.
The second suggestion is about the "Author" page. All other pages are filled by your own text and they are saturated by information. In contrast to…

Hi, Kostya! As well as the reviewers above I totally like your project :)
I've read 'The Garden of Forking Paths' many times and again and again I still admire the skills of metaphorical writing that makes me think of the work from new perspective every time. Therefore, I find creating a website dedicated to Jorge Luís Borges's creations to be a great idea!
Speaking about the website itself, I am really impressed by the choice of the pictures as they are not ordinary. They highlight singularity of Borges's works. I also think that including videos in the project helps readers better understand the material, which is great in educational purposes.
One thing that I would recommend you…
Irina Yakovetskaya That looks soo good! I really like it! The idea of presenting short reviews of books is really good (I like reading Borges and this will be very helpful to find a new book to read :)) There are a few comments that I would like to share. I think it will be very nice to have a short description (somewhere on the main page under or above the video) of who is Borges. I mean, any of us from the course know who he is but for a general visitor it may be not clear. It would serve the purpose of explaining why you should care about Borges and his stories. Also, I understand that you are still working…

WOW
I mean, I could've finish my review right here. Honestly, I like your project SO much, it looks fantastic! What I like the most is the idea - we all do these projects to show our creativity, receive our grades and all that kind of stuff, but this project might easily be used for educational purposes, and that is so cool! I am more than 100% sure that Kate would use it for the future students of this course (if you will allow that, of course).
The design, the materials you're going to add, user-friendliness of this website - I would give 10 out of 10 for all these criteria. The only thing I would…
