Set on a Southern army bottom in the 1930s, Reflections in a Golden Vision tells the storyline of Captain Penderton, a bisexual whose life is upset by the introduction of Major Langdon, a enchanting womanizer who has an affair with Penderton's tempestuous and flirtatious partner, Leonora. Upon the novel's publication in 1941, reviewers were unsure of what to make of its relatively scandalous subject material. But a critic for Time Magazine composed, "In nearly every hands, such materials would deliver a list fruitcake of mere arty melodrama. But Carson McCullers tells her story with simplicity, understanding, and a rare gift of expression." Written throughout a time when McCullers's own marriage to Reeves was on the brink of collapse, her second novel deals with her trademark topics of alienation and unfulfilled loves.
