THESE FADED THINGS: Carson McCullers
My favorite moment, the one that really gave me chills, was when we were standing in what had been Carson’s room and the tour guide casually mentioned that a good part of The Member of the Wedding had been written there. She pointed to a corner of the room where a typewriter had once been, and where a huge, enlarged photo now stood, showing McCullers in the exact same spot, with one hand on her typewriter as though she had been caught mid-sentence.
