Clarice Lispector: la cotidiana locura del placer

Abstract

Clarice Lispector goes deeply into the femenine language, until reaching the experience of her own: herself. Thus, all kinds of desires awaken, and so it opens up the possibility of touching the living world and the most living part of all kind of beings. This possibility brings horror and, at the same time, "clandestine happiness". It is about a clandestine happiness because it is forbidden by the masculine sphere -the one that regulates the daily order-. It is forbidden because the mentioned desires break the order of the working world. However, it is to this transgression to which Lispector's characters go. Therefore, language escapes from logic, too, and so it opens up a new comprehension of the world. This is a comprehension that departs from violence, but at the end it truly means love and devotion.
