Synopsis:
Amazingly, Carson McCullers wrote THE HEART IS A LONELY HUNTER when she was only 23 years old--her first book. It was an immediate success and is widely considered to be her greatest novel. McCullers tells the story of young Mick Kelly, a 12-year-old girl growing up during the Great Depression. Mick is a gifted pianist--as was McCullers--who longs to escape her dreary Georgia town and find a career in music. In her alienation from her surroundings, she finds comfort in befriending a deaf-mute, John Singer, who lives in her family's boarding house. The ironically named Singer is devastated when his only real friend--another deaf-mute--goes mad and is institutionalized. As Mick and several other lonely townspeople tell Singer their troubles, they find in him a refuge from the pain of their isolation, never understanding that Singer himself is slowly giving in to the despair that will kill him. McCullers writes about these lost and melancholy people with deep compassion and a keen awareness of racial and class tensions, but also with appreciation for the universal human need to seek out beauty and decency wherever they can be found.

Inquiries from all shoppers are responded to promptly and courteously. Buyers are encouraged to ask questions prior to placing orders, as all sales are final unless the product you receive differs significantly from that which was advertised here in terms of either the product itself or its promised condition. In other words, “buyer’s remorse” does not qualify for a refund. Exceptions are made only in the event that a buyer is willing to return at his or her own expense an unopened, BRAND NEW item for a refund of the original purchase price only. No original shipping costs will be refunded, unless we are at fault for sending you the wrong item or misrepresenting the product and/or its condition. This hasn’t happened yet, but if it does: you are guaranteed a refund of the purchase price, the original shipping fee, PLUS the cost to ship the item back to us. In addition, we promise that no retaliatory feedback will be left for negative comments received on such transactions. We stand behind our service, and accept responsibility for any mistakes made.
