Hilda Hilst Knihy

Šesťdesiatnička Hillé, alebo Pani O, ako ju volá jej zosnulý manžel, už rok žije sama v kutici pod schodmi, za zatvorenými oknami, len so svojimi myšlienkami. Spomína na detstvo a mladosť, zhovára sa s mŕtvym manželom Ahodom, polemizuje s Bohom a z okna straší susedov hrozivými maskami a odpudzujúcou nahotou.Obscénna pani O vás prinúti spochybniť vlastnú príčetnosť. Toto dielo, napísané ako prúd vedomia ženy na pokraji šialenstva, sa vyznačuje experimentálnym a provokatívnym jazykom a priam bizarnou štruktúrou.
