Reading a hermetic work, seeking connections with the real, or better, perceiving this work as realistic, is always a challenge, especially considering that it is the work of one of the most important authors of Brazilian literature, Clarice Lispector. A paixão segundo G.H., released in 1964, is a novel that has already been widely explored by critics of the author, in different types of approaches, but that always suggests new readings. This book seeks to analyse this fourth work by the author, who reached a high level of aesthetic maturity, seeking to understand its mystical and poetic form. The novel, in its form and content, seeks to move away from the real, but it is the form, which also speaks about itself, that gives sight to reality, whose sense of apprehension is less and less apprehensible in modernity.
