This is an automatically translated description

Clarice Lispector is a Brazilian writer with Ukrainian roots, known worldwide for her exceptional writing style and mysterious plots. G. H. is a wealthy, beautiful woman, alone in her apartment, who enters the maid's room to clean it and suddenly finds archaic symbols and a cockroach. She experiences fear, disgust and love, and plunges into reflections on life, death, God and the search for her own identity.

Who is H.H.? Why is she so scared in this room? How can she find a way out of her own desert without losing herself? "God, I was surprised to realise that my hellish orgy was my own human torment," the heroine of the story says, approaching the shocking climax of her stay in the room.

The author also uses lyrical repetitions to draw the reader's attention to seemingly ordinary things, skilfully turning a mystical novel into a hypnotic text. Where the world emerges from feelings, thoughts, and painful revelations, where cockroaches resemble a prayer and appear as a prayer. Stunned, bewildered, curious and disgusted are just a few of the feelings that the iconic Clarice encourages us to experience. To go through them, the reader must be as full of courage as the protagonist, because the realisation of one's own hell is only the beginning.
