The Heart is a Lonely Hunter

I just finished my latest book for the local book club I belong to, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter by Carson McCullers. This is the book that I read while in the airport last week and I could not put it down, which is a rare occasion with book club reads. I found it so compelling. I'm not sure if you are like me, but I have lots of books that I love and a few (about five) that I would consider favorites. Theses are the books that I have to have my copy of with me at all times. They are the first things I unpack and place in a new home. Well, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter has made it on to my favorites shelf, but tragically I don't own my copy... yet.

So pick up the book and read it if you haven't. I will give you fair warning: The rest of my book club were not fans. They found it a little too depressing, which I found quite odd. To me the book radiated hope for human connection.

Just reading, Margaret
