Abstract
Fantastical elements are very common in the literature of Fernando Iwasaki. As a historian, and also a Peruvian, he has drawn on elements of Inca culture and mythology, and also Peruvian folklore. Although strongly influenced by Cortázar, Poe and Lovecraft , in terms of style, themes, topoi and poetics, Iwasaki is also indebted to the works of Jorge Luis Borges. Indeed, the aim of the article is to analyze the main Borgian influences present in Iwasaki’s works with a particular focus on his book Ajuar funerario (2004).
