Book Reviews of The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter (Oprah's Book Club)
Book Review: A book that will have you thinking!
Summary: 5 Stars
There is much to be said about this book and all of it good. The characters within the pages are memorable and demonstrate the old saying that "everyone is their own world". In the heart of the tale is focus on the solitude that exists in some lives. Additional points to ponder are racial justice through the eyes of a black physician that must wage his own fight after having his son jailed and misunderstanding as the various characters talk to a man that is unable to speak in John Singer. They assume that he is deeply concern without ever really giving thought to the truth of his quite sessions of listening to them going on and on about their injustices. Overall, the characters are seeking to air their discontent with the world while attempting to grasp the reality that has been dealt them. A very good book and one that I would highly recommend.
