Tennessee Williams has 4 past events. (show)  Margaret Thornton signs CHARLESTON Description A gifted writer makes her fiction debut with this lyrical and haunting story of missed chances and enduring love, set against the backdrop of high society Charleston, which asks the eternal question: can we ever truly go home again? When Eliza Poinsett left the elegant world of Charleston for college, she never expected it would take her ten years to return. Now she is an art historian in London with a charming Etonian boyfriend who adores her. But the past catches up with her when she runs into Henry, a former boyfriend from Charleston, at a wedding in the English countryside.
Already unnerved by the earlier encounter, Eliza's carefully guarded equilibrium is shattered when she meets Henry again in Charleston, where she's come for her stepsister's debut, a decade after she first left. Set against a backdrop of stately homes, the seductive Lowcountry landscape, and the entangled lives of families who trace their ancestors back for generations, 2 hinges on Eliza's difficult choice: must she risk everything for which she has worked so hard to be with the only man she has ever truly loved?
2 is an evocative, melancholy novel about one woman's love--for both a man and an unforgettable city. Emotionally resonant, beguiling in its atmosphere, it illuminates the elusive notion of home, and explores whether we can ever truly go back to the place--and the people--that indelibly shaped us.

Left Bank Books - Central West End (downstairs) Williams's thoroughly honest memoir, with its open talk of homosexuality, alcoholism/drug addiction, and mental illness, was quite the eyeopener in 1975. His work and partying made him buddies with many famous writers and actors of the day (Capote, Brando, etc.), whom he discusses. Besides all the gossip, the book also provides insight into one of the world's great dramatists.
