The Apple In The Dark by Clarice Lispector

A disillusioned man leaves his ordinary life and seeks refuge in a remote rural setting, hoping to start over, but finds himself besieged by memories, mistrust, and an eroding sense of identity; in terse, introspective prose the narrative examines guilt, solitude, and the elusive possibility of escape as the protagonist grapples with the moral and existential forces that quietly shape and unmake him.
