Carson McCullers’ prodigious first novel was published to instant acclaim when she was just twenty-three.

Set in a small town in the middle of the deep South, it is the story of John Singer, a lonely deaf-mute, and a disparate group of people who are drawn towards his kind, sympathetic nature.

The owner of the café where Singer eats every day, a young girl desperate to grow up, an angry drunkard, a frustrated black doctor: each pours their heart out to Singer, their silent confidant, and he, in turn, changes their disenchanted lives in ways they could never imagine.
