3.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Good, April 28, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Ballad of the Sad Cafe (Paperback)
A grotesque human triangle in a primitive Southern town...A young boy learning the difficult lessions of manhood...A fateful encounter with his native land and former love...These are [arts of the world of Carson McCullers - a world of the lost, the injured, the eternal strangers at life's feast. Here are brilliant revelations of love and longing, bitter heartbreak and occasional happiness - tales that probe the very heart of our lives. It was a good story. she was not a very good person - nor was he. He a sponge who only cared about himself and she was a niggerdly woman, although the town really needed her.

2.0 out of 5 stars Play script not a book, February 8, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I was wanting to read the book but what arrived was a play script. I guess I should have research more before ordering. Lessons are always to be learned buyer beware.
