In the 1960s, the Spaniard Jaime Vilaseca was a carpenter in Rio de Janeiro until a fateful encounter with Clarice Lispector, for whom he had gone to make a bookcase in her apartment in the Leme neighborhood. The writer had silently watched him working during those days, and when the furniture was finished, she looked at him and said: \u201cYou’re going to be a framer.\u201d Faced with the man\u2019s hesitation, she completed the prediction: \u201cYou won\u2019t escape your destiny!\u201d Since then, for over fifty years, Jaime Vilaseca has lived off this profession, for which he is renowned, besides having become a curator and owner of an art gallery. In this conversation with the poet Eucana\u00e3 Ferraz, the framer talks about his friendship with Clarice Lispector and tells his stories that served as a source of inspiration for texts by the writer, such as the famous short story \u201cThe First Kiss,\u201d from the book Covert Joy<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
