Reviews

Illumination and Night Glare: The Unfinished Autobiography of Carson McCullers
"Illumination and Night Glare is an extraordinary document. Dictated in an idiomatic, associative style, it exposes the doubleness of [Carson] McCullers's life. . . . A rich mine of information for anyone interested in McCullers, and American literary life in the 1950s, these memoirs are also a testament to the courage and sheer love of life of their author."
--Richard Gray, Times Literary Supplement
Carson McCullers: The Complete Novels
The Library of America collects her complete novels in an unprecedented single-volume edition that reveals the breadth and intensity of McCullers' achievement.
Out in the South
"Out in the South is unprecedented in its scope, complexity, and daring."
--Lambda Book Report
This Fine Place So Far From Home: Stories of Academics from the Working Class
Affecting stories of faculty and graduate students from the working-class on their struggles in academia.
