The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter (Paperback)

Customer Review

Carson McCullers says a year of life that the characters meet, seek, suffer from poverty, racism or loneliness.

They revolve around the New York Café, held day and night by Bill Brannon, generous to the damaged of life and captivated by individuals who are changing before his eyes.
The other attraction is played by Singer of deaf and confidant skinned teenager Mick that are fused music and at the threshold of adulthood, Jake Blount and alcoholic communist revolutionary and Dr. Copeland, Blood intellectual who spends hour of his life to the emancipation of his black brothers.

A simple but profound feelings by writing, small tragedies and lust for life of the characters she hints.
