DESCRIPTION:With the publication of her first novel\, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter \nCarson McCullers\, all of twenty-three\, became a literary sensation. With\n its profound sense of moral isolation and its compassionate glimpses \ninto its characters' inner lives\, the novel is considered McCullers' \nfinest work\, an enduring masterpiece first published by Houghton Mifflin\n in 1940. At its center is the deaf-mute John Singer\, who becomes the \nconfidant for various types of misfits in a Georgia mill town during the\n 1930s. Each one yearns for escape from small town life. When Singer's \nmute companion goes insane\, Singer moves into the Kelly house\, where \nMick Kelly\, the book's heroine (and loosely based on McCullers)\, finds \nsolace in her music. Wonderfully attuned to the spiritual isolation that\n underlies the human condition\, and with a deft sense for racial \ntensions in the South\, McCullers spins a haunting\, unforgettable story \nthat gives voice to the rejected\, the forgotten\, and the mistreated -- \nand\, through Mick Kelly\, gives voice to the quiet\, intensely personal \nsearch for beauty.Richard Wright praised Carson McCullers for her \nability "to rise above the pressures of her environment and embrace \nwhite and black humanity in one sweep of apprehension and tenderness." \nShe writes "with a sweep and certainty that are overwhelming\," said the \nNEW YORK TIMES. McCullers became an overnight literary sensation\, but \nher novel has endured\, just as timely and powerful today as when it was \nfirst published.
