Carson McCullers had the brilliant and early success that has come to be almost a tradition of the Southern School. She was born in Columbus, Georgia, in 1917 to a family that was poorly off, but which sympathized with her early passion for music and writing. She started writing plays in her early teens under the influence of Eugene O’ Neill. At seventeen she went to New York to study music at Juilliard with the idea of becoming a concert pianist, but she lost her tuition money in the subway and thereafter supported herself in a variety of jobs, from guarding the door for a near-bankrupt comic-book publisher to playing the piano for dancing lessons in a settlement house. Returning from music to literature, at nineteen she sold two stories to story magazine. Then she went back to the south to marry Reeves McCullers (he died in 1953) and lived for two years at Fort Bragg where he was stationed. It was in this period that she wrote The Heart is a Lonely Hunter (1940) , whose publication made her immediately famous.
It is extraordinary enough for a first novel, but is prodigious for an author of twenty-two. Mrs. McCullers, understandably, had not yet learned the tight control of her art that was to make her next book so memorable, but The Heart is a Lonely Hunter embraces all the themes that she was later to deal with more particularly.
