SPEAKING OF BOOKS
BY CLYDE T. SWISHER
CHAIRMAN, DEPT. OF ENGLISH
NYSSA SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL
Madison Jones has written a brilliant and moving tragedy
of the South today entitled A CRY OF ABSENCE. The novel
deals with the transitional period of inexorable changes in an
entire social order.
No one has told it as it really is; the
southern blacks and whites, and the good and bad in both sides,
and the effect on the lives of all by outsiders who often lack
understanding of the complexities of hard and cruel history.
Hester Glenn, the central character, is at the outset proud,
cold, molded to the past, and a staunch defender of the old
customs. To her. the literal forms of that past are right, and
all other forms lie in the direction of error and evil. Her
possessiveness and selfishness especially affect her youngest
son and warp his development to independent manhood.
However, when a young black activisit is murdered, the
murder and its implications are a profound shock to Hester.
Her responses, as she slowly realizes how she and her son are
involved, form the heart of the novel as it builds in tension and
suspense.
At first Hester will not admit her own error and guilt. She
will not relax her grip on her younger son or listen to her older
son.
Thus her actions shape the terrible events that follow
and inflame the conflicts in the society around her
Hester is a complex character, real and terrible in her blind
ness in her dream-world living. Her agony is deeply moving
as finally she is compelled by forces deep within her to act in
the real world.
What gives the novel its universality is Jones’ examination
of all the characters and their responses to change. Counter
parts of Hester are the Delmores, people from a different region
and culture, but as rigid in their view of the world as she is
in hers. Here then, I suggest, is a perceptive look at a tragedy
of character, of social turmoil, and of the effects of fieopie and
events on each other.

We talk today of man des
troying the world.
This can
not be. Mankind can destroy
mankind but never the world.
Centuries after the last man
has put out his campfire the
world will still continue on
its course.
We talk of this and that
vanishing
species.
It was
always this way. One species
goes and another will take its
place.
We worry about erosion but
there has always been erosion
and there always will be. The
proof is the Mississippi Delta
and the Grand Canyon.
I am talking about evolution,
that gradual process of change
which you and I can hurry up
or slow down a wee bit but
can never entirely stop.
It looks like this generation
of Americans have the idea
that the entire future of the
world depends upon what we
do today.
Even if we have
an atomic war and all human
beings are <kstroyed the world
will continue on its course for
several million years. It won't
be the same by your and my
standards but it will still be
here by some standards.
For the last 25 years I have
been fishing on a short stretch
of Goose Creek. In this short
space of time trails along the
creek have come and gone.
Several fishing holes have dis
appeared and new ones have
been formed. Many trees have
fallen across the creek, re
mained for a short space of
time then washed away.
A
road to the creek has become
overgrown and is fast becoming
a thing of the past. In other
words, with no assistance or
hindrance of mankind Goose
Creek steadily changes. 1 know
of one spot where the creek is
deeper, and no trace of anything
visable there today will be
found.
I readily admit that it is
far past time for us to be con
cerned about pollution and en
vironment but I don’t believe
we should have a crash pro
gram that will prove a burden
to industry and cost men thou
sands of jobs.
Because no
matter what mankind does to
day, evolution with fire, floods
and insects will go right along
making enormous changes.
