A Chicken by Clarice Lispector - Short Story Summary, Analysis, Review

Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! We are celebrating #WomenInTranslationMonth with Clarice Lispector! We continue to explore her Family Ties collection, today let's look at "A Chicken" (Sometimes translated as "The Chicken" or "The Hen") which is frequently recommended to people as one of Clarice's best stories. It has themes of freedom, utility, and perhaps an interpretation of women's role in society. Our copy was translated by Katrina Dodson.
