Titre : The heart is a Lonely Hunter Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Carson McCullers (1917-1967), Auteur Editeur : London [United Kingdom] : Penguin Année de publication : 1961 Collection : Penguin twentieth-century classics. Sous-collection : penguin fiction Importance : 311 p. Format : 20 cm. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 0-14-018132-6 Langues : Anglais Langues originales : Anglais Résumé : At its center is the deaf-mute John Singer, who becomes the confidant for various types of misfits in a Georgia mill town during the 1930s. Each one yearns for escape from small-town life. When Singer's mute companion goes insane, Singer moves into the Kelly house, where Mick Kelly, the book's heroine (loosely based on McCullers), finds solace in her music. Brilliantly attuned to the spiritual isolation that underlies the human condition, and with a deft sense for racial tensions in the South, McCullers spins a haunting, unforgettable story that gives voice to the rejected, the forgotten, and the mistreated--and, through Mick Kelly, to the quiet, intensely personal search for beauty Nature du document : Roman Genre : Psychologique/Récit de vie Réservation

Bolstered by lively conversations with her house servant, Berenice, and her six-year-old male cousin — not to mention her own unbridled imagination — Frankie takes on an overly active role in the wedding, hoping even to go, uninvited, on the honeymoon, so deep is her desire to be the member of something larger, more accepting than herself.
