Title : The Ballad of the Sad Cafe and Other Stories - Carson McCullers - book
Summary :
In his life as in his work, we find the same unbridled need for love, the same obsession with this music through which people believe they can reconcile themselves. And we are struck above all by the tenacious search for human contact, reduced to chance encounters in small bars where alcohol warms the body and soul, erases the pain of the world and makes God superfluous... A brief relief since solitude returns. This solitude that Carson McCullers and each of his creatures seek to escape but which they all end up choosing, as a privilege or a lesser evil. Because, as we know, there will always be solitude for those who are worthy of it.
Hector Bianciotti.
