The concept of this book is definitely different (a book about an author who's writing a book) but I love the idea behind having it be about a male author writing about the life of a young girl. Lispector's prose is always unconventional and even a little whimsical, but there's always purpose behind what she's saying. This was a hit for me and I really loved it.
