The Hour of the Star, Clarice Lispector’s consummate final novel, may well be her masterpiece. Narrated by the cosmopolitan Rodrigo S.M., this brief, strange, and haunting tale is the story of Macabéa, one of life’s unfortunates. Living in the slums of Rio and eking out a poor living as a typist, Macabéa loves movies, Coca-Cola, and her rat of a boyfriend; she would like to be like Marilyn Monroe, but she is ugly, underfed, sickly, and unloved. Rodrigo recoils from her wretchedness, and yet he cannot avoid the realization that for all her outward misery, Macabéa is inwardly free. She doesn’t seem to know how unhappy she should be. As Macabéa heads toward her absurd death, Lispector employs her pathetic heroine against her urbane, empty narrator—edge of despair to edge of despair—and, working them like a pair of scissors, she cuts away the reader’s preconceived notions about poverty, identity, love, and the art of fiction. In her last book she takes readers close to the true mystery of life and leaves us deep in Lispector territory indeed.

评分I’d met someone just like Macabéa in real life - incompetent, aimless, hollow and rootless. The encounterance is always awful and I’m always on the verge of losing patience and feeling guilty afterwards. Nevertheless, these ‘guilt’ apparently weights l...
评分Pois que dedico esta coisa aí ao antigo Schumann e sua doce Clara que são hoje ossos, ai de nós. Dedico-me à cor rubra muito escarlate como o meu sangue de homem em plena idade e portanto dedico-me a meu sangue. Dedico-me sobretudo aos gnomos, anõe...
评分#跳蛙看点书# ［星辰时刻］ 看之前就预料到自己看不懂，看完果然不太懂，这篇克拉丽斯生命最后的小说似乎没有开头，没有高潮，只有讲述者叙说这惨淡的现实，这是一种自述？对自己生平的投影？第一次如此着迷于一篇意识流短文，女孩玛卡贝娅不为自己而活却也不知为何而活，单薄...

中间耽搁了几天，总算是读完了。最后一部分读的太悲伤了。不知道说什么好，很多东西缠绕在脑子里。
评分很意识流，到最后看得不细致，有点飘忽，竟然还看哭了。
评分Extremely beautiful language and very vague and not so interesting plot. A diary with the camouflage of story telling.
评分Extremely beautiful language and very vague and not so interesting plot. A diary with the camouflage of story telling.
