This month brings with it the release of Clarice Lispector’s The Complete Stories. In her review of the book for the Los Angeles Review of Books, Stephanie La Cava wrote, “Lispector uses her words carefully, endeavoring to find something close to ‘reality,’ all the time knowing she will not.” We’re pleased to present an evening centered around this collection of work from an essential writer.

Discussing Lispector’s work and influence will be Porochista Khakpour and Benjamin Moser.

This event will take place on August 27th at WORD Brooklyn, beginning at 7:00 pm.

WORD is located at 126 Franklin Street, Brooklyn, NY. Facebook RSVP here.
