The Obscene Madame D Hilda Hilst 9781937658069 Books

This book is beautifully translated from Portuguese! It's dense, brutal, and majestic. The poetic voice, like a rapid river, moves with dark eroticism for god and for being. The narrator wishes to convalesce from a death and seeks erotic refuge and coffee. Profusely. And, it never arrives. What arrives? In its place: voracious, provocative language that languishes, never surrenders, and it makes you bleed a little, a lot, in unexpected places. You will walk away feeling you have been banished into the intelligent wilderness of language and you might not want to leave. You just want to die in its forest. The translator,Nathanaël, is precise and has strong stamina and the introduction by John Keene prepares the readers well for what to come.
