ASIN: Book Description Customer Reviews: Difficult, yet Remarkable The feeling that remains in any normal human being who stumbles through that passage is one of complete and utter disorientation. In fact, throughout the book, the reader is likely to feel lost more often than not. But, in a twisted sort of way, that is the whole point behind Lins' book. After all, what is life but a journey through which we know no end, no point, no destination? Instead of telling the story of Abel's three affairs in 330 pages of neatly packaged prose, complete with beginning, end, climax and character, Lins takes the reader on a journey that is much more real.
Avalovara will prove to be a colossal struggle for anybody that attempts to "understand" it as he or she is reading it. In short, those looking for plot will, much like Bono, never find what they're looking for. Instead, the beauty of the novel lies in the language. Lins' writing is rambling, Faulkneresque, stream of consciousness at some points, and brilliantly beautiful lyricism at others. At most points, it is a luscious combination of the two. "The smell of dust is dissipated by her presence or by the lukewarm afternoon air coming in through the window," Lins writes on page seven. "Our tongues repeat the game of advance and retreat. Our incisors touch at times and then our muscles retract." On page 223, he writes, "I suck in Abel's mouth, I speak in his mouth, inside his mouth, I say that I love him, with his tongue entangled in mine he says that he loves me, the word "love" rolls between our teeth." The repetition is incredibly simple, but incredibly poetic.

Lins, Osman
novelist and short-story writer, one of the leading innovators of mid-20th century Brazilian fiction. After publishing two novels and a volume of short stories O Visitante (1955; "The Visitor"), O Fiel e a Pedra (1961; "The Plumbline and the Rock"), and Os Gestos (1957; "Gestures")written in a fairly traditional style, Lins broke with linear narration to create the three works that secured his reputation: Nove, Novena (1966; "Nine, a Novena"), consisting of nine narratives; Ava lovara (1973; Eng. trans. 1980), a novel; and A (1976; "The Queen of the Grecian Jails"), a novel/essay. These works subject the fictional narrative to an order imposed by external elements of "literary architecture," some of which derive from Concretist theory. Several narratives of Nove, Novena parallel signs of the zodiac and geometric ideograms. integrates short essays on literary theory and criticism within a fictional narrative. Lins also wrote several plays. Related Propaedia Topics: Twentieth-century literature The novel The short story and its antecedents
