A review by nullieltres
Água Viva by Clarice Lispector

5.0

The last word in the book is what I've felt during my whole reading experience. It touches the edges of human existence and in-existence that even the air did not know. This is a pure literature piece that expound what's between the lines and what's on the unconscious mind of a writer that devotes their pen in writing the unknown to known. I'm in awe of its structure—a building that has a vast foundation but create a shadow of a roof and walls. Books like these create their own havens inside my mind that I get to visit whenever I experience something in my reality that is related to it. And I love visiting them, even when my mind flows in void. Probably, the haven of this book in my mind could be my haven too.
