Set in a 19308 town of the deep South, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter tells the story of John Singer, a deaf-mute person, and a disparate group of people who are drawn towards his kind, sympathetic nature. A young girl with dreams of a musical career, the owner of the café where Singer eats every day, a wild political activist and a black doctor who has devoted his life to the uplift of his community... each opens their heart to Singer, their silent confidant. He, in turn changes their disenchanted lives in ways they could never imagine. Written when McCullers was just twenty-three, this powerful novel takes the reader on an in-depth journey, embracing white and black humanity in one sweep of understanding and tenderness.
