The professor and writer Evando Nascimento gave a class on the work of Clarice Lispector at the IMS Rio. His talk is based on the category of “thinking literature,” which the author uses to describe Clarice’s work: “that which is narrated and the reflections associated with this fact are not opposed. One of the characteristics of the thinking literature of Clarice Lispector is to rethink binary pairs, or very rigid dichotomies,” he explains.

Darkness is a hollow word and one never really knows what fits inside Its dimensions are so undetermined that perhaps it could even be said that everything fits and nothing fits in it, since, being an immense storehouse of paradoxes, the ambiguous quality of immeasurable is immediately added to the primordial void that characterizes it. These attributes, thus agreed, gain particular density when prepared by the wrought of the author of The Apple in the Dark.
