Rayuela es la segunda novela del escritor argentino Julio Cortázar. Escrita en París y publicada por primera vez el 28 de junio de 1963, constituye una de las obras centrales del boom latinoamericano y de la literatura en español. Narra la historia de Horacio Oliveira, su protagonista, y su relación con «la Maga». La historia pone en juego la subjetividad del lector y tiene múltiples finales. A esta obra suele llamársela «antinovela», aunque el mismo Cortázar prefería denominarla «contranovela». Con un total de 155 capítulos, Rayuela puede leerse de varias maneras. Fuente

The scene is laid in the park on SORIN'S estate. A broad avenue of trees leads away from the audience toward a lake which lies lost in the depths of the park. The avenue is obstructed by a rough stage, temporarily erected for the performance of amateur theatricals, and which screens the lake from view. There is a dense growth of bushes to the left and right of the stage. A few chairs and a little table are placed in front of the stage.
