Few writers have expressed loneliness, the need for human understanding and the search for love with such power and poetic sensibility as the American writer Carson McCullers. The Ballad of the Sad Cafe is her masterpiece: an unruly, bittersweet novella concerning the most unlikely of love triangles.

Introducing Little Clothbound Classics: irresistible, mini editions of short stories, novellas and essays from the world's greatest writers, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith. Celebrating the range and diversity of Penguin Classics, they take us from snowy Japan to springtime Vienna, from haunted New England to a sun-drenched Mediterranean island, and from a game of chess on the ocean to a love story on the moon. Beautifully designed and printed, these collectible editions are bound in colourful, tactile cloth and stamped with foil.

'The greatest prose writer that the South produced ... She has examined the heart of man with an understanding that no other writer can hope to surpass' - Tennessee Williams

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Carson McCullers

Carson McCullers nasceu na Georgia em 1917 e começou a escrever desde muito cedo. Com apenas 23 anos publicou O Coração É Um Caçador Solitário (1940), um livro muito bem recebido pelo público e pela crítica, que foi adaptado ao cinema e ao teatro e recentemente eleito um dos 100 melhores romances do século XX. No ano seguinte, saiu Reflexos Num Olho Dourado, que viria a ser imortalizado pelo filme com o mesmo título, realizado por John Huston e protagonizado por Marlon Brando e Elizabeth Taylor. Ambos os romances encontram-se publicados pela Presença nesta coleção. A extensa bibliografia da autora inclui ainda outros títulos que ficaram célebres, como The Member of the Wedding (1946) e A Balada do Café Triste (1951).
Carson McCullers morreu em Nova Iorque em 1967.
