This paper analyzes a short story by the Mexican author Salvador Elizondo in order to highlight the significance of ellipsis and literary condensation as key resources of his writing. As a way of highlighting the themes of transformation and iteration in his works, I establish an analogy with the work by visual artist M. C. Escher.
