Abstract
In this article, the author provides a panoramic view of Jorge Luis Borges' literary world, focusing especially on the figure of Fodor Dostoievski. As a starting point, an interview is considered. The main concern of the paper is an interpretation of Six problems for Don Isidro Parodi (aka Seis problemas para don Isidro Parodi), which Borges wrote under the pseudonym ‘Honorio Bustos Domecq', together with Adolfo Bioy Casares. The presence of Dostoievski is pointed out in these rather bizarre police novels.
