{"product_id":"9780811220026","title":"Near to the Wild Heart","description":"Near to the Wild Heart, published in Rio de Janeiro in 1943, introduced Brazil to what one writer called “Hurricane Clarice”: a twenty-three-year-old girl who wrote her first book in a tiny rented room and then baptized it with a title taken from Joyce: “He was alone, unheeded, near to the wild heart of life.” The book was an unprecedented sensation — the discovery of a genius. Narrative epiphanies and interior monologue frame the life of Joana, from her middle-class childhood through her unhappy marriage and its dissolution to transcendence, when she proclaims: “I shall arise as strong and comely as a young colt.”","brand":"Clarice Lispector, Alison Entrekin, Benjamin Moser","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45868947669310,"sku":"9780811220026","price":361.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9780811220026_aa095dfa-fc32-4f90-91d5-faefd74241ce.jpg?v=1707333277","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9780811220026","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
