Love - Paperback

by Clarice Lispector (Author), Katrina Dodson (Translator)

A glance, a tram, a man chewing gum--and suddenly nothing holds. In this luminous story, Clarice Lispector captures the instant when the ordinary breaks open and the self no longer feels secure. What emerges is not drama but revelation: a world at once more alive and more unbearable.
