— The Passion According to G.H. - Clarice Lispector, Benjamin Moser, and Idra Novey
And it was on one of the walls that flinching with surprise I saw the unexpected mural.
==On the whitewashed wall, beside the door — and that’s why I hadn’t seen it — were nearly life-sized charcoal outlines of a naked man, a naked woman, and a dog that was more naked than a dog.== Upon the bodies nothing was drawn of what nakedness reveals, the nakedness simply came from the absence of everything that covers it: they were the outlines of an empty nakedness.
The lines were coarse, made with a broken-tipped piece of charcoal.
Some strokes were doubled as if one line were the trembling of the other.
A dry trembling of dry charcoal.
==The rigidity of the lines pegged the blown-up and doltish figures on the wall, like three automatons.
Even the dog had the mild madness of something that doesn’t move by its own strength.
The coarseness of the excessively firm line made the dog something solid and petrified, more pegged to itself than to the wall.==
