Gold colored end papers with reviews. vii- viv, 93pp. CONDITION: Fine, like new. ISBN 978-…0-8112-3004-9. Features a new translation, reminiscence by her son, and introduction by novelist Colm Tóbín. "Clarice Lispector"s final novel, initially published under the name "A hora da estrela" in her native Portuguese in 1977. A powerfully written and unfinished novelette by the Ukrainian transplant to Brazil, novelist and short story writer Clarice Lispector. (1920-1977.) As described by her admiring introductory writer Colm Tóbín, Lispector's unflinching originality was born of an "outsider" self-trained mentality, in which she rarely read, and therefore managed not to imitate others in syntax, style or substance. In this case, her valedictory novel's action takes the reader on a philosophical journey of the narrator, a man, who observes the main character, Macabéa, a simple impoverished, lonely office worker in Rio de Janeiro with little sympathy, sometimes impatience and always with an eye to his own interests. A fortune teller plays an important role in Macabéa's pursuit of a belatedly planned future in this striking piece of modern writing. ISBN 978-0-8112-3004-9. (AMJ). Book.
