The poor town of Enigma, Georgia awaits the return of its most
famous son - the Gospel Singer. With the voice of an angel and, it
is said, the touch of a healer, he is fresh from the cover of LIFE
and the cheers of the Carnegie Hall crowd. And yet, for all his
fame, something drives him back to his obscure past, to small-town
idolization and half-forgotten deeds. There, before the crowds that
have gathered at his feet, he will reveal the cruelty at the heart
of his act ... The Gospel Singer, Harry Crews' extraordinary debut
novel, is at once a surreal investigation into the nature of the
American South, as well as an intricate mediation on faith and its
place in the community.
