American writer (1917–1967). From the age of 29, paralysis of one side confined her to a wheelchair. Her work reflects the sadness of lonely people, and her first book, The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter, distinguished her immediately as a novelist of note. Vintage ink signature, “Carson McCullers,” on an off-white 3.25 x 5 card with an affixed 2 x 3 book photo. In fine condition, with some adhesive remnants below the photo, not affecting the signature. Accompanied by original mailing envelope. RRAuction COA.
