### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I trust this seller

Amazing copy for an amazing book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very accessible for a Lispector novel
*by A***N on April 19, 2022*

I'm very much enjoying this story of obsession and LOOOoooove! I've read a lot of Lispector and wish I would have started w her short stories, then this "relationship" novel.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No one bewitches like Clarice Lispector
*by C***S on October 12, 2022*

I highlighted half of the novel. Seriously, why do I even bother? No one pulls you under the waves of a story like Lispector. I really enjoy making a hot coffee and spending a few hours lost in whatever she has created. It's my favorite way to experience her writing. In this story we are face to face with what it is like to fear love. To fear giving away a part of a self you haven't developed and can't even decide if you CAN give away. We see the emotional tug of war that happens (on both sides) as partners* try to enter into one another's lives. In true Lispector form, she drags you deep deep deep down into the lived experience and doesn't let you go until long after you close the novel.
