Carson McCullers' last novel, 'Clock Without Hands,' intertwines the destinies of four unforgettable characters in the turbulent American South of the 1950s. Through the old judge Fox Clane, his teenage grandson Jester, and the young black man Sherman Pew, the novel explores themes of social injustice, loneliness, and the confusing nature of love. The pharmacist J. T. Malone, facing his own mortality, discovers that the real danger lies in losing oneself in life.
