poll: The time is now to start choosing our next BOTM. Since we have entered the summer solstice here in my region, I thought it would be fitting to choose a novel that uses heat like a character itself.
For example, in the novel, The Heart is the Lonely Hunter , author, Carson McCullers, uses the oppressive heat of the environment to mirror the psychological oppression experienced by the characters within the novel. This personification of heat also occurs in the play, A Streetcar Named Desire , symbolizing the tension between its two central characters. —> people who voted for: One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
