Julio Cortazar's crazed masterpiece, the forbearer of the Latin
Boom in the 1960s - published in Vintage Classics for the first
time 'Cortazar's masterpiece. This is the first great novel of
Spanish America... A powerful anti-novel but, like deeply
understood moments in life itself, rich with many kinds of
potential meanings and intimations' Times Literary Supplement Dazed
by the disappearance of his muse, Argentinian writer Horatio
Oliveira wanders the bridges of Paris, the sounds of jazz and the
talk of literature, life and art echoing around him. But a chance
encounter with a literary idol and his new work - a novel that can
be read in random order - sends Horatio's mind into further
confusion. As a return to Buenos Aires beckons, Horatio's friend
and fellow artist, Traveler, awaits his arrival with dread -the
lives of these two young writers now ready to play out in an
inexhaustible game of indeterminacy.
