Called "a novel of unearthly beauty" by Truman Capote, HOUSE OF BREATH is a nearly forgotten classic published in 1950. For a period of time editions of the book were edited to remove the powerful erotic undertones. In richly lyrical and deeply emotional prose, Goyen shows a young man returning to his childhood in the small town of Charity, Texas, and trying to discover the nature of his home and of himself.
