Carson McCullers was born in 1917. She is the critically acclaimed author of several popular novels in the 1940s and '50s, including The Member of the Wedding (1946). Her novels frequently depicted life in small towns of the southeastern United States and were marked by themes of loneliness and spiritual isolation. McCullers suffered from ill health most of her adult life, including a series of strokes that began when she was in her 20s; she died at the age of 50. The Member of the Wedding was dramatized for the stage in the 1950s and filmed in 1952 and 1997. Other films based on her books are Reflections in a Golden Eye (1967, with Elizabeth Taylor and Marlon Brando), The Heart is a Lonely Hunter (1968, starring Alan Arkin) and The Ballad of the Sad Café (1991).

In this thoughtful and moving novel, four men find themselves inextricably bound together by their past histories. The aged Judge Clane dreams of resurrecting the confederacy, while his grandson, Jester, is involuntarily drawn to Sherman, a volatile black orphan who feels the sharp sting of racial injustice, especially when he finds out the truth about his parentage. Through the eyes of these individuals Carson McCullers explores the roots of racial prejudice and the dual moralities of the town's leading whites.
20181023 漫长的睡前读物终于突击看完了。算是卡森最后一部长篇也是最有野心的一部,但我一直在拉锯。到底Johnny的死是不是太过于设计,小镇居民对Sherman的恨是否也太过于设计,直到出现3K和取消学校隔离,才知道我终究无法体会这种毫无来由的恨意和隔阂有多深。一直以为卡森不以情节见长,更拿手人的内心和周围关系的拉扯,这部小说涉及情节的地方仍感觉唐突,倒是回到单个人身上就又回到了卡森拿手的领域。Jester在空中的思索部分和结尾JT去世都堪称大师手笔。总之,看了以后很想找个南方人聊一聊……
评分麦卡勒斯一贯的美国南方、炎热的夏天、黑人人权、同性恋以及死亡。语言还是那么优美富有诗意。前面节奏略慢,后五分之一一气读完,最后一章节Malone的死反复读了好几遍,McCullers生前最后一部作品,她在本书为他的读者做了最好的道别。He was no longer a man watching a clock without hands.He was not alone, he did not suffer. He did not eve think of death these days. He was not a man dying...nobody died,everybody died.
评分个人更喜欢她的处女作。但作为她最后一本小说,《Clock》的故事背景是种族隔离被立法禁止前夕的美国,这让它多了一分大气和时代意义
评分A masterpiece. Most political amongst her works. It immerses you noiselessly and with a bang, you are there near the end, cleansed and moved
