Only a couple stories really resonated me. I’ve had this book for, like, a really really long time. Cortázar is a really hypnotizing writer

Some good stories in here and some just okay. The writing style has a mysterious nature to it that really draws you in.

Mixed bag of short stories; some a joy, others a burden. Most of the action takes place within the characters minds, which can lead to fantastic outcomes, but can just as easily make one feel confined.
