Em A maçã no escuro, Clarice Lispector faz crer que sim, transformando o atordoado Martim em um novo homem após ter supostamente assassinado a mulher. Fugindo do crime, Martim acaba descobrindo-se como homem, desprezando os antigos valores estabelecidos em sua vida. Na corrida por uma nova existência, ele se revela numa outra condição. Sua fuga, em vez de isolá-lo, remonta à criação do homem, de um novo ser surgido do nada. A narrativa, próxima da criação bíblica, em vez de julgar os personagens culpados ou inocentes, faz deles aprendizes do mundo, onde cada etapa funciona como uma gênese de um ser recém-criado.Mas é a natureza, com a qual Martim passa a conviver de forma mais acentuada ao chegar à fazenda de Vitória, que se transforma em pano de fundo da diferenciação e da combinação entre o homem e o animal, das atitudes racionais contra os atos impensados. No contato com a dona da fazenda, sua prima viúva Ermelinda e a cozinheira mulata, Martim se envolve não numa relação de antítese entre homem e mulher, mas na descoberta de pessoas complementares e ambíguas, dominantes e dominadas que invertem seus papéis a todo momento.Clarice Lispector coloca-se na narrativa como um espectador capaz de alterar os destinos dos personagens. Agindo como um Deus, a autora muitas vezes abandona as características próprias de cada um deles para fazer uma descrição própria de seus papéis na história maior contada no livro: a vida, a criação, a dor e o prazer de ser. E se por um lado o leitor fiel de Clarice pode estranhar que a figura principal deste livro seja um homem – é Martim, o herói-vilão, estopim de mudanças em si e nos outros —, ao mesmo tempo acabará identificando nele uma característica comum aos protagonistas da autora: um profundo mergulho em seus próprios valores, a visão ensimesmada da existência, que os aproxima e os iguala em grau, sofrimento e gozo a qualquer pessoa.Os três capítulos que formam A maçã no escuro, escrito de 1951 a 1961, quando foi publicado, mostram de forma gradativa o pecado, ato impensado, e a redenção, o surgimento de um outro, como elementos primordiais de evolução do ser. A análise profunda que Clarice impõe nada mais é que o exercício do pensamento: o diferencial do homem, que mata, morre e ressuscita, ressurgido a cada momento.A maçã no escuro, como os demais títulos de Clarice Lispector relançados pela Rocco, recebeu novo tratamento gráfico e passou por rigorosa revisão de texto, feita pela especialista em crítica textual Marlene Gomes Mendes, baseada em sua primeira edição..

I find myself somewhat conflicted. The prose was competent, yet the characters lacked the depth I usually seek. A fair 3 stars.
