Julio Cortazar is a giant. You know you're good when Borges sings your praises. But this book was not up to par compared to Hopscotch or Blow Up. Without having seen a Spanish copy my guess is that its a very poor translation. Nevertheless it has some gems in the last two essays. And it's timely now that Daniel Ortega has been re-elected.
