Sobre este artículo
Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1961. Two volumes. Each a stated first edition. One in the presumed first-state dust jacket with photo of McCullers leaning forward (vs. back) on rear panel and rear flap blurbs beginning with Tennessee Williams (closed tear extending from top of cut-out to jacket top edge). The other in presumed variant, or perhaps later-issue jacket with photo of McCullers leaning back on rear panel and rear flap blurbs beginning with Sitwell and with a new line added. Both jackets have four blurbs--by Williams, Sitwell, Pritchett and David Garnett. Both in price-clipped dust jackets with minor wear on corners and spine ends.
Sinopsis
Set in Georgia on the eve of court-ordered integration, Clock Without Hands contains McCullers's most poignant statement on race, class, and justice. A small-town druggist dying of leukemia calls himself and his community to account in this tale of change and changelessness, of death and the death-in-life that is hate. It is a tale, as McCullers herself wrote, of "response and responsibility--of man toward his own livingness."
