Hopscotch


I would like to try to memorize this quote so that when people ask me why I like Corta'zar's Hopscotch so much I can just tell them...

"Reading the book, one had the impression for a while that Morelli had hoped that the accumulation of fragments would quickly crystallize into a total reality. Without having to invent bridges, or sew up different pieces of the tapestry, behold suddenly a city, or a tapestry, or men and women in the absolute perspective of their future, and Morelli, the author, would be the first spectator to marvel at that world that was taking on coherence."
-Corta'zar
