Illumination and night glare

"More than thirty years after it was written, the autobiography of Carson McCullers, Illumination and Night Glare, will be published for the first time."--BOOK JACKET. "Looking back over her life from a precocious childhood in Georgia to her painful decline after a series of crippling strokes, McCullers offers poignant and unabashed remembrances of her early writing success, her family attachments, a troubled marriage, friendships with literary and film luminaries (Gypsy Rose Lee, Richard Wright, Isak Dinesen, John Huston, Marilyn Monroe), and her intense relationships with the important women in her life."--BOOK JACKET.
