The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter
By Carson McCullers
368 pages;
Mariner
I love this book! I had heard about this book for
years and then my dear friend Julia Roberts did an interview in O, The Oprah
Magazine and she listed this as one of her favorite books of all times. The
book I love so much—recommended to me by Julia—is The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter
by Carson McCullers. It's a great, great read and not hard at all. — Oprah
