Lispector’s most shocking novel. The Passion According to G.H., Clarice Lispector’s mystical novel of 1964, concerns a well-to-do Rio sculptress, G.H., who enters her maid’s room, sees a cockroach crawling out of the wardrobe, and, panicking, slams the door - crushing the cockroach - and then watches it die. At the end of the novel, at the height of a spiritual crisis, comes the most famous and most genuinely shocking scene in Brazilian literature....

Here, gathered in one volume, are the stories that made Clarice a Brazilian legend. Originally a cloth edition of 86 stories, now we have 89 in all, covering her whole amazing career, from her teenage years to her deathbed. In these pages, we meet teenagers becoming aware of their sexual and artistic powers, humdrum housewives whose lives are shattered by unexpected epiphanies, old people who don't know what to do with themselves - and in their stories, Clarice takes us through their lives - and hers - and ours.

This new translation of Clarice Lispector's sensational first book tells the story of a middle class woman's life from childhood through an unhappy marriage and its dissolution to transcendence. Near to the Wild Heart, published in Rio de Janeiro in 1943, introduced Brazil to what one writer called "Hurricane Clarice": a 23-year-old girl who wrote her first book in a tiny rented room and then baptized it with a title taken from Joyce.

The crônica, a literary genre peculiar to Brazilian newspapers, allows writers, or even soccer stars, to address a wide readership on any theme they like. Chatty, mystical, intimate, flirtatious, and revelatory, Clarice Lispector’s pieces for the Saturday edition of Rio’s leading paper, the Jornal do Brasil, from 1967 to 1973, take the forms of memories, essays, aphorisms, and serialized stories. Endlessly delightful, her insights make one sit up and think, whether about children or social ills or pets or society women or the business of writing or love.

The Hour of the Star, Clarice Lispector's consummate final novel, may well be her masterpiece. Narrated by the cosmopolitan Rodrigo S. M., this brief, strange, and haunting tale is the story of Macabéa, one of life's unfortunates. Living in the slums of Rio and eking out a poor living as a typist, Macabéa loves movies, Coca-Colas, and her rat of a boyfriend; she would like to be like Marilyn Monroe, but she is ugly, underfed, sickly, and unloved.

A meditation on the nature of life and time, Água Viva (1973) shows Lispector discovering a new means of writing about herself, more deeply transforming her individual experience into a universal poetry. In a body of work as emotionally powerful, formally innovative, and philosophically profound as Clarice Lispector’s, Água Viva stands out as a particular triumph.

Após uma tacada especialmente ruim, Bobby Jones lança sua bola de golfe em um precipício. Ao procurá-la, encontra um homem acidentado que parece estar em seus momentos finais.

Assombrados pela pergunta, Bobby e sua amiga Frankie tentam descobrir quem é Evans e o que exatamente não lhe foi pedido. Porém, os dois logo percebem que, por mais que não sejam detetives profissionais, os perigos dessa investigação são muito reais.

Le sentiment de l'exil, l'étrangeté au monde, la mélancolie, que Clarice Lispector exprimait dans les lettres à ses sœurs écrites de Berne où elle résidait dans les années 1940, sont la matière même de ses œuvres et se retrouvent dans les nouvelles lues par Fanny Ardant. "Ce qui était arrivé à Ana avant d'avoir un foyer était à jamais hors de sa portée: une exaltation perturbée qui si souvent s'était confondue avec un bonheur insoutenable."

Rappelant les légendes traditionnelles et les contes initiatiques, les cinq histoires de ce recueil mêlent le monde de l’enfance aux destins d’animaux. Ces derniers se voient pris dans un tourbillon d’événements aussi anodins que mystérieux, inspirés de la vie quotidienne. Dans un mélange d’humour et de simplicité, d’ironie et d’amour maternel, l’illustre écrivaine brésilienne écrit pour ses fils Paulo et Pedro, et à travers eux pour tous les enfants de la Terre, avec à ses côtés leur chien Ulysse, qui saute joyeusement de la réalité à la fiction.

It was the night of the auction. I never thought things would come to this. I was the girlfriend and sub to the great Vincent Forbes-Stuart, businessman and well respected member of the community. Well at least to anyone that didn’t know him. In reality, he was an alcoholic, drug addicted, abuser of women, and I needed to get away. Club Lust was my way out of this abusive relationship.

Sur le sort de cette femme sans charme et sans esprit du Nord-Est brésilien, le narrateur de "L'heure de l'étoile" semble tant s'attendrir que perdre patience. Autour d'elle gravitent des avides et des ambitieux qui ne lui donneront rien. En observateur distant, l'auteur fictif s'acquitte d'une lourde tâche : faire le récit de cette vie misérable et sans amour, qui tiendrait en un souffle.

En une quinzaine de romans et recueils de nouvelles, Clarice Lispector (1925-1977) a construit une œuvre qui la place parmi les plus grands écrivains brésiliens. De sa très jeune voix, Chiara Mastroianni lit trois des treize nouvelles de "Liens de famille", dans lesquelles l'auteur allie une écriture d'une précision implacable à un regard cruel, tendre et ironique. Tous les personnages ont en commun de porter le poids d'une faute, d'une honte, d'une trahison, ou de résister à la tentation de la pitié.

To swim in that river full of shining stones was one of the most beautiful things that ever happened in her life. Somehow she knew the names of the stones: emerald, ruby, topaz, sapphire, sardonyx, onyx, jade, pearl, lapis lazuli... she just didn't see any diamonds. It made her think of her grandma’s jewelry box, the one she found in the room where grandmother lived. It was one of those boxes that, when you lifted the lid, a ballerina appeared twirling at the sound of a funny song. After following a rainbow through the door, Giovanna found herself in a completely different place.
