The Hour of the Star by Clarice Lispector
1.0

Not my cup of tea

Astonishingly weird and while a few gems stuck out to me from this work, I did not enjoy reading it. Her style has been praised as unique but it is perhaps just not for me. The story and the style both to me seem lazy and incomplete so if she is a genius, she isn't the kind of genius I can instantly recognize. Approach this one with caution, I'd say.
