In one of his stories a gunman uses mystic Jewish symbolism to trap and shoot the detective Erik Lonrot. In addition to "Death and the Compass," this man wrote a story in which a French writer attempts to write a word-for-word recreation of a Cervantes novel in "Pierre Menard, Author of the (*) Quixote." His other works include thought experiments like "Tlon, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius" and one that explores an infinite collection of books. For 10 points, name this man who included "The Aleph," "Library of Babel," and "The Garden of Forking Paths" in his collection Ficciones.
