The beloved Southern Gothic classic that turned Carson McCullers into an overnight literary sensation and one of the Modern Library's top 20 novels of the 20th century."A remarkable book…From the opening page, brilliant in its establishment of mood, character, and suspense, the book takes hold of the reader."—The New York TimesIn a Depression-era Georgia Mill town, an enigmatic deaf mute man, John Singer, draws out the haunted confessions of an itinerant worker, a doctor, a widowed café owner, and a young girl. Each yearns for escape from small town life, but the young girl, Mick Kelly, the book's heroine (loosely based on McCullers), finds solace in her music.Wonderfully attuned to the spiritual isolation that underlies the human condition, and with a deft sense for the racial tensions in the South, McCullers spins a haunting, unforgettable story of American loneliness that gives voice to the rejected, the forgotten, and the mistreated—and, through Mick, gives voice to the quiet, intensely personal search for beauty.
