{"product_id":"selected-cronicas-9780811213400","title":"Selected Cronicas","description":"\"In 1967, Brazil's leading newspaper asked the avant-garde writer Lispector to write a weekly column on any topic she wished. For almost seven years, Lispector showed Brazilian readers just how vast and passionate her interests were. This beautifully translated collection of selected columns, or cronicas, is just as immediately stimulating today and ably reinforces her reputation as one of Brazil's greatest writers. Indeed, these columns should establish her as being among the era's most brilliant essayists. She is masterful, even reminiscent of Montaigne, in her ability to spin the mundane events of life into moments of clarity that reveal greater truths.\" Publishers Weekly\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New Directions Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/17\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780811213400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.99h x 5.22w x 0.62d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/30\/1996 pg. 78\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/1996 pg. 1447\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/15\/1996 pg. 20\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/1997 pg. 99\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Review of Books\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/24\/2009 pg. 35\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Clarice Lispector","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36644294394012,"sku":"9780811213400","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_5b623c5e-7fa5-467e-88d8-d54824dfbe74.jpg?v=1603858289","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/selected-cronicas-9780811213400","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
