Luke (korrick) | 2004 comments The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, Carson McCullers, 1940, United States, NOVEL

"All the pain, all the loneliness – Jake Blount, Doctor Copeland, Mick – and Singer – Carson has tied it all into a tiny little package, so small, almost a seed – and placed it into the reader, where it will now stay, maybe grow … but certainly stay."

(Ted Schmeckpeper, review)

Samadrita (fictionista01) | 34 comments Here's mine - https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/610272114

P.S.:-Garima, Dolors and anybody else who can see this on their timelines, this page could surely do with more links to reviews.

Thank you, Samadrita, and an emphatic yes to your last statement.


Algernon (Darth Anyan) Ok, I will link to my review, although I feel I should have tried harder to capture the intensity of sadness I was left with after finishing the book:

Traveller (moontravlr) Okay, this is the first time I'm submitting a review on this group, so please smack my wrist if I'm doing something wrong, Aubrey. Carson Mc C is too good to pass up though, so here's mine: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Submitting reviews is simple, Traveller. Write one, post the link, and there you are. Submitting works, on the other hand, is a little more complicated.


Alexa (AlexaNC) | 120 comments This seems to have a listing, but not to have been added to the bookshelf.

You're right about that, Alexa! Thanks for pointing that out. It's near impossible to come across those kinds of problems without group help.


Cecily | 23 comments My review is quite short. I need to reread McCullers, now that I write more: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...


Brina Here's my review. I haven't read nearly enough this year but at least I have this contribution:
