The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter

To give everyone time to locate a copy of The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter, let's aim for an April 7th start date. I have a lot of material about Carson McCullers floating around somewhere on my laptop. I will search for it.

Sounds good.

Can't wait to get started!

I put something up on my blog about it. I hope no one minds a little publicity.

School us with your laptop, U.!

New member of this group! I'd love to join! :)

Welcome, Melissa! Looks as though I should welcome you to LT, too. Urania1 always runs a good group read. Should be fun. Glad you're joining us.

Urania is the bomb. Glad you're here for the read along, Melissa!

Saw this on BostonBiblophile's blog post an look forward to reading along! Going to purchase the book this week!

Welcome, Gonzalo!

BostonBibliophile's got quite the influential blog going.

Hope U. doesn't mind this for an appetizer: The Carson McCullers Project

Hi Gonzalo! Welcome to the read and to LT.

I have dug up my copy.

Thank you!

Hi I also saw this great idea on the Bostob Bib blog. Sounds like fun. When is the first post date?

Welcome Mmawn! I think we begin reading and discussing on the 7th.

I'm only able to post one line at a time. Anybody else having this trouble here?

No.

Not me.

It's the 8th. I have to go milk goats and garden. I'll be back with Carson McCullers material in a nonce ... this evening.

Hi all. Anybody out there reading? I knew that I was going to out of town around the start of this group read, so I began it early. I should finish it tomorrow or the next day. Impressions so far?

I am rereading slowly, limiting myself to a chapter a day so I can absorb more. I am struck by how much I've forgotten since my last reading. I didn't remember at all the drunken man at the bar/diner, for instance.
