The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter/ The Member of the Wedding

The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter/ The Member of the Wedding

â€œLike all writers of original genius, Miss McCullers convinces us that we have missed something which was plainly to be seen in the real world . . . She is a master of peculiar perception and an incomparable storyteller.â€ â€”V. S. Pritchett

Upon publication of The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter, Carson McCullers, all of twenty-three, became a literary sensation. With its compassionate glimpses into its charactersâ€™ inner lives, her story gives voice to the rejected, the forgotten, and the mistreated. In The Member of the Wedding, McCullers tells the story of the inimitable twelve-year-old Frankie, who is utterly, hopelessly bored with life until she hears about her older brotherâ€™s upcoming marriage. It is a coming-of-age story that showcases McCullers at her most sensitive and enduring best.
