They know a lot: they really do get around. I may know a lot about Antonioni that they don't know. Or maybe they do even when they don't. There are various ways of knowing by not-knowing. I know: it happens to me too.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe crônica, a literary genre peculiar to Brazilian newspapers, allows writers (or even soccer stars) to address a wide readership on any theme they like. Chatty, mystical, intimate, flirtatious, and revelatory, Clarice Lispector's pieces for the Saturday edition of Rio's leading paper, the \u003cem\u003eJornal do Brasil\u003c\/em\u003e, from 1967 to 1973, take the forms of memories, essays, aphorisms, and serialized stories. Endlessly delightful, her insights make one sit up and think, whether about children or social ills or pets or society women or the business of writing or love. This new, large, and beautifully translated volume, \u003cem\u003eToo Much of Life: The Complete Crônicas\u003c\/em\u003e presents a new aspect of the great writer--at once off the cuff and spot on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 864\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.96 x 7.97 x 5.37 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 27, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51765934162208,"sku":"9780811226790","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/2c70585faafe28004f544f02a91ca745.webp?v=1780282919","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/too-much-of-life-the-complete-cronicas-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
