El mundo de las matemáticas, en su abstracción y complejidad, suele parecer inaccesible a los no iniciados. El original camino que se propone aquí es acercarnos a ese universo a partir de uno de los grandes fabuladores de todos los tiempos: Jorge Luis Borges. De este modo alcanzamos a comprender, de la mano de referentes literarios, cuestiones matemáticas fascinantes y mucho menos inaccesibles de lo que pudiera creerse. Todo ello de forma didáctica y amena, con el compromiso explícito por parte del autor de hablar para aquellos «que sólo saben contar hasta diez».
