The contributors to this volume use diverse critical techniques to
identify how Carson McCullers' writing engages with and critiques
modern social structures and how her work resonates with a
twenty-first century audience. The collection includes chapters
about McCullers' fiction, autobiographical writing, and dramatic
works, and is groundbreaking because it includes the first detailed
scholarly examination of new archival material donated to Columbus
State University after the 2013 death of Dr. Mary Mercer,
McCullers' psychiatrist and friend, including transcripts of the
psychiatric sessions that took place between McCullers and Mercer
in 1958. Further, the collection covers the scope of McCullers'
canon of work, such as The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter (1940), The
Member of the Wedding (1946), and Ballad of the Sad Cafe (1943),
through lenses that are of growing interest in contemporary
literary studies, including comparative transatlantic readings,
queer theory, disability studies, and critical animal theory, among
others.
