Reflections of the Golden Eye (collected Works of Mccullers)

About This Novel
Reflection in the Golden Eye is an important early work by McCullers. It inherits the legacy of grotesque literature and Gothic novels in the American South. It compresses the two themes of loneliness and suppressed desire into a limited and closed space - a dull and monotonous military post in the American South. - As a carrier, through a series of incredible daily events caused by these abnormal people who are required to be obedient and abiding by the rules, but almost all of them are deviant and even deviant, until an inevitable murder, in a fable and prose style but full of suspense and Gothic form, it twists and turns to show the deformed people under the squeeze of normal society and the tragic consequences that their long-repressed and unresolved desires may bring. In 1966, McCullers personally served as the screenwriter, and Marlon Brando and Elizabeth Taylor performed the impossible love of this abnormal person on the big screen.
