Contexto: revista do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras, Vitória, n. 28, p. 111-136, 2015.2358-9566http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/20002Considering the importance of literary reading for the education of youth, the objective of this article is to emphasize the short story as a format to captivate and introduce the school reader. To support this argument this article contains a selection of short stories by Clarice Lispector for emphasizing the particular and unique effect of the short story (CORTAZAR, 1974). Furthermore, we highlight the subject of interest by youth and the incompleteness of language used by the writer to provoke the reader. This study examines aspects of the short story that form a connection between young readers and the text, especially those caused by the play of identification and estrangement in this author.porAcesso AbertoShort storyContoClarice LispectorFormation of readersSchool readerClarice LispectorFormação de leitoresLeitor escolarO conto de Clarice Lispector como provocação ao jovem leitor escolarClarice Lispector’s short story as a provocation to the young school readerArtigo
