Notably: It’s a long way to go, but it is Bridge Day over the New River in Southern West Virginia, not far from Fayetteville and Beckley. I had to cover it a few times as a reporter in my days at the Register-Herald in Beckley–a one-day festival stretched along the span of the New River Bridge, reputed as the country’s longest, and the world’s second-longest, single-span bridge. (The longest is now Shanghai’s Lupu Bridge.) The main attraction are the dozens of BASE jumpers who leap off every few minutes, or every few seconds, into a gorge enflamed by fall colors. The last time the festival was held, before the pandemic (in 2019), it drew 303 jumpers from 41 states, leaping off 790 times. Here’s the bridge when I last saw it in 2009.

For extreme erudition, fantasticalness, and general obliquity I have never read a collection of stories (are they stories, most of them?) to equal this. In reality these are moral parables, theological discussions, nightmares, and pure displays of the most recondite information, larded only two or three times with real stories. If you could combine the early Aldous Huxley, the H. G. Wells of The Time Machine and The Crystal Egg, and the most arcane efforts of Corvo you might get something like this. I’m afraid that they are utterly untranslatable, at least into anything that could be expected to sell more than 750 copies in the United States. That they are remarkable is beyond argument, but their peculiar variety of remarkableness seems to me to legislate against them as anything but $50-a-pound caviar to the general (including me). I’d decline with appropriate expressions of astonishment.

–From a 1952 rejection note by a reader for Knopf publishing, referring to Jorge Luis Borges’s El Aleph.
