Abstract

The book Where will teach you to be happy and other writings translated from Portuguese into Spanish by Elena Losada, published by Siruela in 2009, reveals the literary beginnings of the Brazilian writer born in Ukraine, Clarice Lispector. Through various texts and an exceptionally and powerful interview a year before she died, 1976, the reader will discover the seed of some of the constant themes of her works such as: feeling, birth, love, neuter, the origin, salvation, the self, the piece ... all united to deep inside of life, without setting aside her deep critical view against: injustice, pain, gender issues and even ontological character, ethical and oneiric issues. Writer’s different faces not only contextualize her time, but it goes beyond; hence the relevance of her poetic thought, which is characterized by defending the creation. No doubt, the author says, one of the major human missions and quests is to do everything possible to find the happiness.
