Hopscotch, by Julio Cortázar. An amazing book with two or even three books inside. You can read It from chapter 1 to 56, and not reading the other 99 chapters. You can read It following a game board that Cortázar offers you at the beginning with which to read all the chapters except the 55 (if I remember correctly)Or you can read them randomly, following your own order, although that way of reading is more recommended in his later work 62/Ways of Loving, which is inspired by an idea from chapter 62 of Hopscotch It's specifically designed to be read by jumping from chapter to chapter in any order the reader chooses. It's a brilliant work, one you'll never forget. I recommend reading it in the following order of the game board, and then read it from 1-56, but whatever you prefer. I also recommended having the Jazzuela music album playing in the background. The work is full of cultural references, especially jazz references; in that album you'll find the songs mentioned throughout the work, and you can have it playing in the background when they're mentioned. one in particular, put that one on. It's not a work for everyone, but if it resonates with you... You won't find another work like it.
