Starry Moment (chinese Classic Selection)
General Fiction星辰时刻（中经典精选）
(brazil) Clarice Lispector
"Starry Hour" is a novel about the exploration of "identity". The author depicts the difficult life of Macabea, a girl who moved from a poor area to Rio de Janeiro. She sees the image of the narrator in the mirror, and the narrator appears in the novel in the first person, speaking of their loneliness. After she broke up with her boyfriend, she took a selfie in the mirror and covered her lips with lipstick, as if she had found her dream identity: becoming a bright superstar. After getting a good omen from the tarot card master, an ironic and sad scene occurred: she was hit by a luxury Mercedes-Benz driven by a blond man. On the verge of death, the "star moment" in the hallucination finally appears, and all humbleness is sublimated into brilliance.
