80 reviewsThis exhilarating collection of non-fiction sees one of the greatest 20th-century writers meditating on the moments that make up a life
'How did I so unwittingly transform the joy of living into the great luxury of being alive?'
Between 1967 & 1977, the internationally renowned author Clarice Lispector wrote weekly dispatches from her desk in Rio for the Jornal do Brasil. Already famous for her revolutionary, interior, metaphysical novels & short stories, in her Chronicles she turned her attention to the everyday, reshaping the material of her life into profound, touching & funny, tiny revelations. Observing the world around her, small encounters like hearing tales of the lost loves of a taxi driver, or the bitterness lurking beneath the prettiness of an old friend, become an exposition of the currents & foibles that define our lives.
Everything from the meaning of cosmonauts to the new ideas, writers & artists that populate the sparkling international world of the 60s & 70s are considered & transformed into jewels of insight, delight & devastation. Sincere & playful, exhilarating & contemplative, Too Much of Life: Complete Chronicles opens up a new way of seeing the world.
