Quarta Página is a non-profit channel for human narration of books. BOOK DESCRIPTION Água viva, a long fictional text in the form of a monologue, was first released in 1973, a few years before Clarice's death. At that time, she had already established herself as one of the most solid figures in our literature, due to her unique style, in which the main concern was the constant search for language. Água viva is an exciting challenge for anyone who reads or rereads Clarice Lispector. It presents a language that is not lost in time; on the contrary, it is richly metaphorical, in which everyday things, actions and emotions are transformed into grandiose digressions that inquire about the meaning of existence and life. Following the introspective characteristics of her books, Clarice creates a unique work, a true intimate account that projects in flashes, like a kaleidoscope, true summaries of states of mind in a confidential tone, where subjectivity surpasses the factual and the narrator is responsible for the cadence of the text.
