{"product_id":"9781805331360","title":"The Obscene Madame D","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Obscene Madame D is the electrifying masterpiece by one of modern Brazilian literature's most significant and controversial writers. At sixty years old, HillÃ© decides to abandon conventional life and devote the rest of her days to contemplation in a recess under the stairs. There, she is haunted by her perplexed, recently deceased lover, Ehud, who cannot understand her rejection of common sense, sex and a simple life in favour of vain metaphysical speculations. In a stream-of-consciousness monologue, HillÃ© speaks of her search for spiritual fulfilment from a space of dereliction. In thrilling prose that is part Joyce, part Lispector and part de Sade, Hilda Hilst takes us into the disorder and beauty of a mind restlessly testing its own limits.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shelf-Made.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52063877693768,"sku":"9781805331360","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/1260\/5000\/files\/9781805331360_edf2286c-dfce-48e8-a600-203bf17c7b8b.jpg?v=1764086179","url":"https:\/\/shelfmadebooks.com\/products\/9781805331360","provider":"Shelf-Made.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
