1963 novel written by Argentinian writer Julio Cortázar. "Hopscotch" (originally titled Rayuela) is not a simple novel. Credited with causing a revolution in Spanish literature by its mere appearance, the novel declares itself to be aimed towards being as un-literature-esque as possible. It easily succeeds on breaking pretty much all "conventions" of this thing called literature. Not to be confused with Kevin J. Anderson's 2002 novel, the 1975 novel by Brian Garfield, or the 1980 film based on the 1975 novel.
