The Gospel According to Hitler

This is a remarkable novel by a reader obsessed with Jorge Luis Borges to the point of imputing to him an infamy that not even he himself would have invented: that of having engendered, with his infernal imagination, the prophetic ferment that made Adolf Hitler and Nazism possible. The Gospel According to Hitler does what Borges's Pierre Ménard did with Cervantes's Quixote: it rewrites while producing a difference. This novel won the 2012/2013 Sesc Literature Prize and is the author's first published book. "The Gospel According to Hitler won the Sesc Literature Prize precisely because it is a risky piece of literature, where the author preferred to mix apples and oranges—Hitler with Jorge Luis Borges with the (anti)Christ—rather than write a well-written, short, objective text that easily communicates with the reader." – André Sant'Anna
