I absolutely loved "If on a winter's night, a traveller" -- it's in the rarefied company of scant few other works of fiction capable of conjuring such vivid, surreal, and dreamlike worlds -- I can only think of Neuromancer and Paprika off the top of my head.

Invisible cities was too visual for me (I have a weak visual imagination, so I can't appreciate books that rely too heavily on images), but I really liked If On A Winter's Night a Traveler, and this quote reminds me that I want to read more Calvino.

Would you (or anyone else here) recommend another book of his, given those preferences/weaknesses of mine?
