I am looking for help in trying to locate a short story or essay that describes what happens to books, letters, and other written words once they vanish from this world. I kind of recall that the author might be Jorge Borges, but a superficial search of his work doesn’t show anything. And I might be barking up the wrong tree entirely.
Stump the Bookseller
New format, same book stumper solving.
Have you tried the works of Stanislaw Lem? It sounds like something he might have written.
I remember this story. I have it on my shelves somewhere. I thought it was called Exodus of Letters, but this gives no hits anywhere. I’ll keep looking.
