5.0
this book is really more than just a love story between two people. it's a love story between god, humanity, and identity. what a journey. every clarice lispector book reminds me why i want to live in a world that loves the way that she does. that uses words in the same way she does. that does not know truth the way she does not.
i hope this is a book i find myself re reading years later. i notice a crack in my bookshelf and pick up this book i once loved so much. it will maybe be a time in my life where i'm lost, uncertain, unclear. and i'll pick up this book and i will know what i felt. there's a feeling in me that knows that this book may just always bring me something. there's an ocean of that beauty in this book and losing it would feel like losing some reason. so, i hope i find this book when i will find myself needing it.
