favorite book
favorite short-story
favorite moment from any of his books

I'll have to say Hopscotch, my favorite Cortazar moments are from that book. That Rocamadour's night, Jesus Christ, the tension, couldn't stop reading. And also that bridge scene back in Buenos Aires. And the climax at the mental hospital, hnngg. Holy shit this novel has a lot of good moments.

Favorite short-story, I'd say it is El otro cielo.
