About This Novel
This book collects all of McCullers' short stories, 20 in total, fully demonstrating his unique and exquisite short story narrative art. Most of the works choose to look at the adult world from the perspective of a teenager: from the piano room with tight strings, the strange and abandoned orphanage, to the noisy bars, and the country bus heading south; from the restless and gloomy music prodigy, to the confused girl on the hospital bed, To the solitary woman who spies and is spied on, to the ignorant young man in the parade... These young souls who have experienced the world's astringency, the pain of growing up, and even the shadow of the writer himself are looking for the next exit in life amidst escape and abandonment, hesitation and loneliness. Its inspirations and themes intersect with McCullers's full-length works: the alienation of marginalized people, the subtle interpersonal emotions between different races, etc.
