"Susan Sontag was our last great literary star. Her brilliant, serious mind combined with her striking image, her rigorous intellectualism and her groundbreaking inquiries into what was then seen as 'low culture' - celebrity, photographs, camp - propelled her into her own unique, inimitable category and made her famous the world over, emblematic of twentieth-century New York literary glamour. Today we need her ideas more than ever. Her w ..."

"It is her least translated major work, and though Clarice Lispector is perhaps the most studied Brazilian writer of her century, there is remarkably little critical writing on The Chandelier. Yet the book's difficulty is, in a way, what makes it linger in the mind. Clarice often said that her books profited by rereading, and that is certainly true of The Chandelier. Unlike her first novel, written in fragments and constantly jumpin ..."
