Synopsis

90 classic titles celebrating 90 years of Penguin Books
'One of the hidden geniuses of the twentieth century' - Colm Tóibín

A housewife’s life is shattered by a sudden epiphany. A simple tale of killing cockroaches fragments into multiple narratives, each uncovering new truths. In this selection of haunting short stories, Lispector reveals the permeable boundaries between past and present, the real and the surreal, showing ordinary moments to contain the deepest existential truths.
