For those into Brazilian literature, I strongly recommend Nelson Rodrigues, Guimarães Rosa and Lima Barreto. I assume most people already know Machado de Assis, because he was the most famous of all.

You are definitely one of my favorite channels. The pace of your ability to place your energies in many diverse discussions of artistry, music in the background, paintings, and explorations of touches of psychological and philosophical elements of writers and their histories I have been listening for six hours and have 27 pages of my own notes. I will address the love of Clarice Lespector and a few other writers I love from South America as soon as I rest. I will follow up on this discussion today and fulfill my obligation to explain what I think. I love you with all my heart.❤

My favorite by her is still "A Maçã no Escuro". The Apple in the Dark, to me is a feminine perspective of how the psyche of a man opperates through birth, death and rebirth, the only male protagonist of Clarice's when we think of her novels. Martin commited a crime and dives into the darkness of an evening walking through a moor which is so darkened by that evening's night sky, it won't make no difference if he closed his eyes. I feel like she had read crime and punishment by Dostoievski and is inspired by it. The book is also divided into parts. Whereas Dostoievski's novel is divided into 6 parts, Lispector's is divided into 3: "Como se faz um homem" (How a man is made), "Nascimento do herói" (the hero's birth), a "Maçã no Escuro" (the apple in the dark). Looove it!

I know portuguese language, so, I want to thank you for recommendations for lusofone literature! Else I have ideas for near episodes: episodes about genre literature such as science fiction (Isaac Asimov, Arthur Clark, Robert Sheclley, Frank Herbert, Philip C.Dick, Clifford Saimak, Stanislav Lem, brothers Strugansky, Ursula Le Guin, Frederick Brown, Andre Norton), detective (Samuel Hammet, James Kane, Dafne Dumorie, Gilbert Chasterton) or action literature (Cormac Mackarty, David Mottel).

She's one of my favorite Brazilian writers. I really don't think anyone that isn't Brazilian or at least knows football history can really understand the kind of writing the likes of her, Nelson Rodrigues and other contemporaries such as Armando Nogueira did. She was, above all, a Botafogo fan, and although she didn't understand too much of the sport, it clearly showed in her writing. Man, I love her.

O ethos dela é perfeitamente descrito numa crônica que ela escreveu a pedido do Armando Nogueira. Não lembro o título, acho que "Armando Nogueira, o Futebol e Eu, Coitada", mas aquilo ali é o verdadeiro sentimento de um torcedor. Vocês são brasileiros, não tem como escapar da cultura do seu país, e particularmente eu acho *essencial* entender a dinâmica de clubes do Brasil para entender personalidades por aqui... podem me chamar de lunático ou coisa do tipo, mas é o que é. EDIT: como eu sugeri em meu comentário original, não acho que vocês realmente consigam entender a obra dela como um todo sem entender a posição dela dentro do mundo futebolístico. Brasil e futebol são inseparáveis. Mas nunca vou convencê-los, então meio que tanto faz.

I think that characterizing someone as „Brazilian Kafka“ is problematic. It is implying that she is like someone, and not just herself, writing her own story, having her own experiences. The title feels like she’s a copy or a secondary placed author behind the „better“ Author from the west. Literature and Authors should be analyzed in their Contexts. Doesn’t matter if it’s the historical, social, Artistic, Psychological context. And yes she may have been influenced by Kafka, but that doesn’t make her the Brazilian Equivalent, or Copy.

She explicitly took inspiration from Kafka, plus he is more well known so to market her in this way towards people who may not have heard of her draws more intrigue from Kafka fans, thus widening her own audience.

It is the cockroach connection. A facile comparison for sure, but since Kafka wrote a novella about becoming a cockroach, and she wrote a novel about a fed up housewife who eats a cockroach, people be like “Brazilian Kafka”. To me the better analogy would be to a Virginia Woolf. Woolf was like an English Lispector.
