Clarice Lispector's sensational, prize-winning debut novel Near to
the Wild Heart was published when she was just twenty-three and
earned her the name 'Hurricane Clarice'. It tells the story of
Joana, from her wild, creative childhood, as the 'little egg' who
writes poems for her father, through her marriage to the faithless
Otávio and on to her decision to make her own way in the world. As
Joana, endlessly mutable, moves through different emotional states,
different inner lives and different truths, this impressionistic,
dreamlike and fiercely intelligent novel asks if any of us ever
really know who we are.Clarice Lispector was a Brazilian novelist
and short story writer. Her innovation in fiction brought her
international renown. References to her literary work pervade the
music and literature of Brazil and Latin America.She was born in
the Ukraine in 1920, but in the aftermath of World War I and the
Russian Civil War, the family fled to Romania and eventually sailed
to Brazil. In 1933, Clarice Lispector encountered Hermann Hesse's
Steppenwolf, which convinced her that she was meant to write. She
published her first novel, Near to the Wildheart in 1943 when she
was just twenty-three, and the next year was awarded the Graça
Aranha Prize for the best first novel.Many felt she had given
Brazillian literature a unique voice in the larger context of
Portuguese literature. After living variously in Italy, the UK,
Switzerland and the US, in 1959, Lispector with her children
returned to Brazil where she wrote her most influential novels
including The Passion According to G.H. She died in 1977, shortly
after the publication of her final novel, The Hour of the Star.
