Reseña: Translated by Gregory Rabassa winner of the National Book Award for Translation 1967 Horacio Oliveira is an Argentinian writer who lives in Paris with his mistress La Maga surrounded by a loose-knit circle of bohemian friends who call themselves the Club. A childs death and La Magas disappearance put an end to his life of empty pleasures and intellectual acrobatics and prompt Oliveira to return to Buenos Aires where he works by turns as a salesman a keeper of a circus cat which can truly count and an attendant in an insane asylum. Hopscotch is the dazzling freewheeling account of Oliveiras astonishing adventures.
