The Heart is a Lonely Hunter (Penguin Modern Classics)

A group of people have little in common except that they are all hopelessly lonely. A young girl, a drunken socialist and a black doctor are drawn to a gentle, sympathetic deaf mute, whose presence changes their lives.

Un grup de oameni au putin in comun, cu exceptia faptului ca sunt toti singuri fara speranta. O tanara fata, un socialist betiv si un doctor negru sunt atrasi de un surd mut bland, simpatic, a carui prezenta le schimba viata.
