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.
很久之前就读过这本书了。刚才某一瞬间看见它,竟然忘记了内容。我能记得读完这本书的时候是个下午,冬天,我合上书坐在床上愣了一会儿。a dying man's life is like a clock without hands。我想着是我看过的Carson Maccullers最经典的话之一。没有指针的钟,你看见时光,但看...

A masterpiece. Most political amongst her works. It immerses you noiselessly and with a bang, you are there near the end, cleansed and moved
评分甚麼最重要?意識形態的論爭或是個人生死興衰? 寫得非常好的小說。
评分六星
评分個人更喜歡她的處女作。但作為她最後一本小說,《Clock》的故事背景是種族隔離被立法禁止前夕的美國,這讓它多瞭一分大氣和時代意義
评分麥卡勒斯一貫的美國南方、炎熱的夏天、黑人人權、同性戀以及死亡。語言還是那麼優美富有詩意。前麵節奏略慢,後五分之一一氣讀完,最後一章節Malone的死反復讀瞭好幾遍,McCullers生前最後一部作品,她在本書為他的讀者做瞭最好的道彆。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.
