The story, told through a series of flashbacks on the day of Peyton's funeral, is a powerful depiction of a family doomed by its failure to forget and its inability to love.<br /></p> <p>Written in masterful prose that "achieves real beauty" (<i>The Washington Post</i>), William Styron's debut novel offers unflinching insight into the ineradicable bonds of place and family. The story of Milton, Helen, and their children reveals much about life's losses and disappointments.<br /> <br /> <i>Lie Down in Darkness</i>, poignant and compelling, is a classic of modern American literature from the author who went on to earn high critical acclaim—with a Pulitzer Prize for <i>The Confessions of Nat Turner</i> and a National Book Award for <i>Sophie's Choice</i>—and a place at the top of the <i>New York Times</i> bestseller list.</p> <p><i>This ebook features a new illustrated biography of William Styron, including original letters, rare photos, and never-before-seen documents from the Styron family and the Duke University Archives.</i></p>.
