The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter

"Adapted from the novel by Carson McCullers, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter explores a universal longing for connection. At its center is John Singer, a lonely deaf man, who becomes the confidant to a constellation of disparate souls--an angry carnival worker, a crusading physician, the owner of a failing café and a fifteen-year-old girl in love with music--all seeking understanding and compassion from a man desperately in need of understanding himself. Each pours their heart out to Singer, and he in turn changes their disenchanted lives in ways they could never imagine."--Page 4 of cover.
