"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Virginia Spencer Carr holds the John B. and Elena Diaz-Verson Amos Distinguished Chair in English at Georgia State University. Her books include "Understanding Carson McCullers," "Dos Passos: A Life," and a biography of Paul Bowles.
Sensitive, balanced, authoritative . . . A work of prodigious research and unblinking honesty―the kind of biography that leaves the reader replete with the sense of having vicariously experienced a life as it was lived.
(New York Times)Fascinating . . . From the pages of The Lonely Hunter emerges the essential spirit of a consequential and controversial American writer.
(New York Times Book Review)Carr's biography is full, sympathetic, and frank. She knows Carson McCullers's life and work inside out.
(Newsweek)Likely to become the definitive biography of McCullers
(Library Journal)Admirable . . . Offers the best picture we are likely to get of an almost incomprehensibly neurotic personality.
