The Imitation of the Rose
By Clarice Lispector
Translated by Katrina Dodson, Edited by Benjamin Moser
Introducing Little Clothbound Classics- irresistible, mini editions of short stories, novellas and essays from the world's greatest writers, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith
The small incidents of life become moments of inner revelation in the luminous writing of Clarice Lispector. A woman contemplating a vase of roses after a nervous breakdown; a tangled mother-daughter relationship; a man's abandonment of a dog; an animal in a zoo- each one leads to mystery and self-discovery, delight and devastation.
