Alejandro Chacoff, in New York Review, on Clarice Lispector and Brazilian crônica and fiction.
“… crônicas do feed on a certain amount of friction—strange incidents, uncomfortable interactions with strangers, conversations with cab drivers (Lispector has a couple of very good pieces on this topic). […] The crônica demands a certain capacity for boredom, for being open to fleeting, small scenes of the quotidian.”
In New Yorker, a Lispector lost interview. An article (2015).
