Description: The Apple in the Dark by Clarice Lispector, Benjamin Moser, Paulo Gurgel Valente Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description The best one, as Clarice herself described it - her great mystical masterpieceIn the mistaken belief that he has killed his wife, Martim flees the city and arrives, in a state of both fear and wonder, at a remote ranch. There, he will have to remake himself, emerging, from the beast-like state in which his crime has plunged him, to the fullness of a reinvented humanity. Along the way, he will mark the lives of the two women who run the ranch, brambly, authoritarian Vit ria and her weepy cousin Ermelinda. But the real drama is interior- Clarice Lispectors most wrenching, and most intoxicating, exploration of how a man becomes a human - and of how language can transform a life into a destiny.A highly sculpted, metaphysical book whose mysteries and allegories glow with a scintillating light, Apple in the Dark is a masterpiece by "one of the hidden geniuses of the twentieth century" (Colm T ibin).Translated by Benjamin Moser.
