Clarice Lispector (1925-1977), the author of such works as Near to the Wild Heart, The Hour of the Star, and The Passion According to G. H., is the internationally acclaimed novelist and short-story writer from Brazil and the subject of Benjamin Moser’s magisterial biography Why This World.
Series editor Benjamin Moser, who contributes afterwords for all four of these new translations, is the author of Why This World: A Biography of Clarice Lispector, due out in paperback from Oxford University Press in May 2012. He also just completed a new translation of Lispector’s The Hour of the Star.
The Irish author Colm Tóibín’s most recent novel, the bestselling Brooklyn, won the 2010 Costa Fiction Award.
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-Cola, and her rat of a boyfriend; she would like to be like Marilyn Monroe, but she is ugly, underfed, sickly, and unloved. Rodrigo recoils from her wretchedness, and yet he cannot avoid the realization that for all her outward misery, Macabéa is inwardly free. She doesn’t seem to know how unhappy she should be. As Macabéa heads toward her absurd death, Lispector employs her pathetic heroine against her urbane, empty narrator—edge of despair to edge of despair—and, working them like a pair of scissors, she cuts away the reader’s preconceived notions about poverty, identity, love, and the art of fiction. In her last book she takes readers close to the true mystery of life and leaves us deep in Lispector territory indeed.
生存本身就是一件痛苦荒谬,充满苦难,虚无且没价值的事。我们被喧嚣野蛮的匆忙撕成碎片。认清生命不值得追求后选择服从现实,保持理性克制,崇尚科学和逻辑,过一种崇高正义,冷静文明,高尚体面,庄严明智的生活。当我们把知识当作美德,认为保持清醒就会幸福,可真相却是,...
评分 评分 评分闵姐姐: 同城见信如面。我仍是无法抑制地想再和您谈一下李斯佩克朵的《星辰时刻》。那天我坐在五道口城铁站的长凳上,恋恋不舍地读完最后一页,现在也是草莓季,人群如海,我陷落在城市最幽暗的底部,陷落于这本书和她,也包括她的姓名。尽管上次您已经告诉我,大家都是...
