Beschreibung

<p><b>Described by Clarice Lispector as 'the best one', this intoxicating portrayal of a man searching for his destiny is her mystical, enigmatic masterpiece</b><br><br>'All I've got is hunger. And that instable way of grasping an apple in the dark-without letting it fall'<br><br>Martim, believing that he has committed a murder, flees the city and escapes into the night. Wandering through the vastness of nature he arrives, in a state of fear and wonder, at a remote ranch run by two women. There Martim finds work and, as he labours in the blistering heat of the Brazilian summer, becomes transfigured; remade into something else entirely.<br><br>Translated by Benjamin Moser <br><br>'The most important Brazilian woman writer of the twentieth century... The richness of <i>The Apple in the Dark</i> defies the explanatory power of any single interpretation' <i>TLS</i></p>
