Carson McCullers: Complete Novels (LOA #128) (Library of America)

Set in small Georgia towns that are at once precisely observed and mythically resonant, McCullers's novels explore the strange, sometimes grotesque inner lives of characters who are often marginal and misunderstood. In this collection, readers will find "The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter, Reflections in a Golden Eye, The Ballad of the Sad Cafe" and other favorites.
