LISPECTOR CLARICE NEAR TO THE WILD HEART

Near to the Wild Heart  published in Rio de Janeiro in 1943  introduced Brazil to what one
writer called "Hurricane Clarice": a twenty-three-year-old girl who wrote her first book in a
tiny rented room and then baptized it with a title taken from Joyce: "He was alone  unheeded 
near to the wild heart of life."   The book was an unprecedented sensation - the discovery of a
genius. Narrative epiphanies and interior monologue frame the life of Joana  from her
middle-class childhood through her unhappy marriage and its dissolution to transcendence  when
she proclaims: "I shall arise as strong and comely as a young colt."
