The Golden Apples is an acutely observed, richly atmospheric portrayal of small-town life in Morgana, Mississippi. There's Snowdie, who has to bring up her twin boys alone after her husband, King MacLain, disappears one day, discarding his hat on the banks of the Big Black. There's Loch Morrison, convalescing with malaria, who watches from his bedroom window as wayward Virgie Rainey meets a sailor in the vacant house opposite. Meanwhile, Miss Eckhart the piano teacher, grieving the loss of her most promising pupil, tries her hand at arson. |
