Synopsis: |
McCullers' fiction, including "The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter", "The Member of the Wedding", and "The Ballad of the Sad Cafe", established her as a key voice of the 1940s and '50s. Critics have praised her lyrical evocations of the yearning for love, always tempered by a harsh acknowledgement of the futility of the quest. This new edition of full-length critical essays offers illuminating discussions of McCullers' work and its place in the American canon. This latest title in the "Bloom's Modern Critical Views" series is bolstered by a chronology, a bibliography, notes on the contributors, and an introduction from noted literary scholar Harold Bloom. |
