She was a law student, editor, translator, and newswriter, who traveled widely, spending eight years in the United States. "Family Ties" (1960) is a collection of short stories revealing Lispector's existentialist view of life and demonstrating that even family ties and social relationships are temporary. Although tied to each other and to the outside world, the characters are finally totally alone and separate. Lispector received praise from American critics for "The Apple in the Dark" (1967), a novel about a guilt-ridden man's search for the ultimate knowledge (Eve's apple), which he believes will bring him hope. Lispector's books are being translated into various languages in Europe, especially in France, where the critic Helene Cixous is one of her great admirers and a promoter of her works.

Espanto Contos, de Clarice Lispector 12 de Novembro, às 19:00 horas Moderação: David Oscar Vaz Nesta obra, Clarice Lispector retrata personagens típicas da classe média envolvidas no seu habitual e corriqueiro quotidiano até que algum evento rompe a ordem natural das coisas. E então o mundo se revela estranho, e o seu próprio ser acaba se tornando noutro.. Num verso da canção Língua, Caetano Veloso diz: “Gosto de sentir minha língua roçar a língua de Luís de Camões”. O amor pela língua portuguesa, assim confessado, se amplia no tempo e no espaço. Atravessa terras e oceanos, une povos. Caetano Veloso, do outro lado do Atlântico, aproxima-se assim de Fernando Pessoa, que pela boca de Bernardo Soares declarou: A minha pátria é a língua portuguesa. O ciclo LITERATURA BRASILEIRA – ESTADOS DE ALMA, moderado pelo escritor brasileiro e professor universitário David Oscar Vaz, tem assim como objectivo abordar obras clássicas, consagradas pelo tempo, e as mais significativas produções literárias contemporâneas, unidas por temas transversais, pelo estado de espírito presente em cada texto ficcional, como a alegria, a tristeza ou a ira, a loucura, a gula ou a luxúria, e muitas outras condições humanas.
