À propos de cet audio

 Carson McCullers was all of 23 when she published her first novel, The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter. She became an overnight literary sensation, and soon such authors as Tennessee Williams were calling her "the greatest prose writer that the South [has] produced." The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter tells an unforgettable tale of moral isolation in a small southern mill town in the 1930s.

Richard Wright was astonished by McCullers's ability "to rise above the pressures of her environment and embrace white and black humanity in one sweep of apprehension and tenderness." Hers is a humanity that touches all who come to her work, whether for the first time or, as so many do, time and time again. The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter is Carson McCullers at her most compassionate, most enduring best.

Brilliant! This is by far the best book I have ever read. The narrator did a fantastic job as well.

Beautifully written, with wonderfully rich characters, some of who will stay with me for a long time, I’m sure. I’m glad my book club picked this, otherwise I might not have read it. I’m left understanding more about aspects of life that are far from my personal experience, and with a sense of melancholy. It’s a good book.
