Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! We continue our celebration of Women in Translation this month by heading to Brazil. Clarice Lispector writes the final novel of her life with "The Hour of the Star." Some argue it's the peak of her career. It's hard to deny the power this story can deliver. With a heavy theme rooted in class and poverty, there are many other elements such as knowledge and connections with others that leave readers speechless in a profundity that is rarely reached in books. Our copy was translated by Ben Moser.
