The Tallons
Book (italiano):
<div>In <I>The Tallons</I>, the second book in his ?Pearl County” series, William March continues to hone his distinctive style but for the first time creates a work that follows a continuous, linear narrative. Here, March’s masterful development of the theme of jealousy highlights his growing maturity and ambition as a writer.<BR><BR>Set in a rural Alabama backwater, <I>The Tallons</I> tells the story of two farm boys, Andrew and Jim Tallon. Their placid and predictable life is upended by a girl from Georgia, Myrtle Bickerstaff. The conflict which engulfs these three is built up from a series of carefully chosen and extraordinarily telling incidents to a dramatic climax which will be remembered long after the book is set aside.<BR>March framed the novel as ?a study in paranoia” and to the end of his life considered it one of his strongest works.<BR></div>
