Member of the Wedding by Carson Mccullers
From the master of Southern Gothic, Carson McCullers's coming-of-age story like no other about a young girl's fascination with her brother's wedding.Twelve-year-old Frankie is utterly, hopelessly bored with life until she hears about her older brother's wedding. Bolstered by lively conversations with her family maid, Berenice, and her six-year-old cousin -- not to mention her own unbridled imagination -- Frankie takes on an overly active role in the wedding, hoping even to go, uninvited, on the honeymoon, so deep is her desire to be a member of something larger, more accepting than herself.
Carson McCullers (1917-1967), one of America's most enduring literary personalities, wrote with courage and compassion about life's misfits, their longing to belong, and their sometimes isolated and tortured existence in books like The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter, Reflections in a Golden Eye, and The Ballad of the Sad Café, as well as plays like The Member of the Bride and The Square Root of Beautiful.
