not know by many people and difficult to understand, unfamiliar, unknown, mysterious, subtle, understood only by experts, obscure, abstruse, complex, little known, esoteric, hidden, concealed, covert, cryptic

This group of narratives has been accorded special attention by Borges scholars, whose expert exegeses are a virtual necessity in sorting out the vast array of formal intricacies and recondite learning. Without the guiding hand of a seasoned explorer, the uninitiated reader is apt to founder in Borges’s erudite tangle of metaphors, ellipses, obliquities, religious references, and obscure proper names. Mysticism, of course, is a notoriously difficult, perhaps impossible, subject to write about.
