Описание книги

McCullers was an American novelist, short-story writer, playwright, essayist, and poet. McCullers' work is often described as Southern Gothic and indicative of her southern roots. Critics also describe her writing and eccentric characters as universal in scope. Her stories have been adapted to stage and film. Contents: The Heart is a Lonely Hunter – A moving saga of the struggles of a lonely deaf man after his one and only mute-friend is consigned to a mental asylum. Clock Without Hands – A poignant re-examination of racial prejudices during the volatile 60s when a bunch of disparate people come together under court-ordered integration. Reflections in a Golden Eye – An intriguing tale of homosexuality, extra-marital affair, and unfulfilled desires inside the shrouded Army life.Private Ellgee Williams, a solitary man full of secrets and desires, has served for two years and is assigned to stable duty. After doing yard work at the home of Capt. Penderton, he sees the captain's wife nude and becomes obsessed with her. Capt. Penderton, as a closeted homosexual, realizes that he is physically attracted to Pvt. Williams, but remains unaware of the his attraction to his wife, Leonora. What will be the outcome of this love triangle? Who will win and who will lose?

‘Masons?’ Biff asked.

‘Shut up, you! Else I’ll snatch your arm off and beat you black with it,’ Blount bawled. He hunched over close to the mute and his voice dropped to a drunken whisper. ‘And how come? Why has this miracle of ignorance endured? Because of one thing. A conspiracy. A vast and insidious conspiracy. Obscurantism.’
