In 1984, two years before his death, Borges published Atlas, a book of journeys. It is composed by memories, brief stories and essays, dreams and even a love declaration to María Kodama (who accompanied him during his last trips) but the book is unique due to the photos of Borges as tourist: at the pyramids, in Madrid, in Athens, in an air balloon in California.
