} Any attempt to reconstruct possible or imaginary reality prefers the certainty of the diaphanous. Memory and memories are instances always elusive. Human language is a step that melts to be walked. Any effort to constrict the feelings in these symbols we call words, it is frustrating. However, the search for the undiscoverable is a noble act. Supreme irony, drift.
"The only possible likely scenario is precisely what we do, without any intention, just for the journey, whatever that is."
Chronicle After reading Hopscotch Travel and could not help but think that, ultimately, this is a book of those who attempt to account for the impossible. Cosmoway advance the bound retroactively. Sutil final paradox. Unveiling and concealment. Those seeking a biography Cortázar is lost. Anyone seeking further input or documents that help to understand the myth, think again. Chronicle Travel & Hopscotch is a sensible book I recommend to read like a poem.
Because, frankly, poetry is the link that holds any desire to communicate the incommunicable. The ideal translation, will bizarre.

"The Chronicle and Travel to the Bookshelf Humanoid Hopscotch. A hug and good Salena!
