About This Novel
"A Clock Without Hands" is an impressive novel by Carson McCullers. A dying pharmacist, a white judge, his rebellious grandson and two black men live like clocks without hands, frantically searching for themselves. These people, who each have their own privacy, act as bystanders in each other's lives. Their intersection is not because they like each other, but only because of excessive loneliness. Loneliness may be due to the absence of the soul. If there is a soul present, can loneliness be tolerated? There is nothing terrible about losing anything, only losing yourself.
