This thesis aims to reach a better understanding of the importance of these narrative devices in the novel.

Conclusion
Carson McCullers’ genius does not only lie in her extraordinarily keen and deep insight, but also in her unique and exquisite narrative skills.
The Heart is a Lonely Hunter is a great work in that it invokes feeling in such a depth and that it reaches layers in such complex meanings by the usage of various narrative strategies.
