Über diesen Titel

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.

"A remarkable book...[McCullers writes] with a sweep and certainty that are overwhelming." ( The New York Times)

I simply loved this book. It is so sad at times that I actually teared up. It was so human and realistic that I couldn't put it down. I listened to this over the course of a couple days and cried at the end at the sheer humanity of what we all go through in this world! This novel is relatable for anyone. It focuses on a deaf and mute man's experience living in a shall town. He experiences the world through a lens maybe we do not fully understand, but McCullers tells the story with such finesse that we are gripped with total empathy - that feeling of wanting to hug the narrator and tell him we fully understand his clarity-yet-confusion of the world. This was an amazing read and I would highly recommend this novel.

Pure beauty!
