From a very young age, Clarice Lispector revealed her love for letters. In 1930, after watching _____ a theatrical show, the little author, aged just 10, wrote “Pobre Menina Rica”, a play in three acts! The manuscripts are unfortunately lost.
The young writer has not given up on making her texts known. At age 11, she sent several short stories to the children's section of the Diário de Pernambuco, but nothing was published. The reason for the failure, according to her, was only one: from an early age, her stories spoke of sensations, not facts.
In 1932, she had her first contact with the works of Monteiro Lobato. She liked it so much that she told it in her short story “Clandestina Happiness”, when she got to borrow, after much insistence, the book “Reinações de Narizinho”.
