Another aspect of McCullers' writing that I admire is her flawless shifting of points of view between characters. Despite how flawed the characters may be, you cannot help but sympathize with their motives and views through the lenses of their own logic. Besides this, the prose and imagery are incredibly vivid. Jester is Judge Clane's grandson and is learning to fly and studying law. Jester is strangely drawn to Sherman but is growing to despise his grandfather's beliefs.

Al final nos queda una sensación de que las personas buenas con ideas erróneas e inflexibles, también pueden provocar mucho daño a su alrededor, y esto lo hace Carson de una manera casi sin esfuerzo, aún cuando este libro está un poco alejado de sus personajes marginados, sus escenarios melancólicos, sigue siendo un gran trabajo aunado al echo que lo escribió estando ya muy enferma. THE JUDGE: A gluttonous, bigoted man who lied to himself as to his worth, and at age 85, has come up with a plan for the federal government to make reparations to the South for the financial ruin brought about when slaves were freed. The second plot concerns Judge Clane. He has a fantastic scheme to get himself re-elected to Congress after a long absence, while also making a fortune. The judge, who drinks, laments, and lies to himself as much as any man in recent fiction, plans to introduce legislation compelling the U.S. government to redeem all outstanding Confederate currency. According to a recent poll, 6 a.m is the most common alarm call, with 8% of all Americans waking up at that time. T.J. Malone es farmacéutico tiene 40 años, dirige su propio negocio, tiene esposa y dos hijos pequeños; un día cualquiera va al médico y recibe la peor de las noticias, esta muriendo y no hay nada que hacer sin siquiera sospecharlo, esta noticia lo deja más lleno de dudas que de certezas, se pone a repasar su vida, y se da cuenta que no está listo para morir, su esposa Martha; una mujercita sin chiste pero resuelta, ha hecho un negocio vendiendo tartas y hasta ha comprado acciones de Coca Cola, es decir no se quedará desamparada, y eso en lugar de aliviarlo le hace sentirse ofendido.Kitabın temel meselesi ırkçılık olsa da bu zaten çok fazla okuyup izlediğimiz bir mesele olduğu için yazarın ölümle ilgili söyledikleri daha çok ilgimi çekti benim. Karakterlerden biri ölümcül bir hastalığa sahip, biri çok yaşlı, birinin -torun- babası intihar etmiş ve sonuncu ise ten renginden dolayı zaten ölüme çok yakın yaşamış hep. Bütün karakterlerin ölümle böyle içli dışlı olması ve bu konuda yaptıkları muhakemeleri okumak çok etkileyiciydi. Bir de McCullers'ın muhteşem bir kalemi olunca iyice keyif verdi okuması. The late behavior of Malone, standing against all he has supported in the past, cannot be reconciled with his previously weak character and his adolescent hero worship of Judge Clane. The greatest prose writer that the South produced ... She has examined the heart of man with an understanding that no other writer can hope to surpass Tennessee Williams

As with all her writing, this is distinctively McCullers, with a lovely, lyrical feel (she was a trained musician). Carson McCullers never fails to impress me. In this grim novel of the Southern Gothic tradition, she examines the growing race tensions at the cusp of the civil rights movement, inter-generational gaps and relations, and most importantly the theme of life vs. death. Sheer genius from the first line: "Death is always the same, but each man dies in his own way."People best know Reflections in a Golden Eye (1941). The novella The Ballad of the Sad Cafe (1951) also depicts loneliness and the pain of unrequited love. Yaddo in Saratoga, New York, graduated her, an alumna. Con todos estos ingredientes, Carson nos sirve un plato que va tomando temperatura conforme lo vamos degustando, ella que siempre uso rodeos, recursos para mostrarnos la otra cara del sur, en esta historia se vuelve frontal y nos confronta con los prejuicios raciales de frente y sin atenuantes, los personajes de ir matizando se van alineando en una u otra línea. She from 1935 to 1937 divided her time, as her studies and health dictated, between Columbus and New York and in September 1937 married Reeves McCullers, an ex-soldier and aspiring writer. Reeves found some work at Charlotte, North Carolina, where they began their married life.
