In The Tallons, the second book in his ?Pearl County” series, William March continues to hone his distinctive style but for the first time creates a work that follows a continuous, linear narrative. Here, March’s masterful development of the theme of jealousy highlights his growing maturity and ambition as a writer.
Set in a rural Alabama backwater, The Tallons tells the story of two farm boys, Andrew and Jim Tallon. Their placid and predictable life is upended by a girl from Georgia, Myrtle Bickerstaff. The conflict which engulfs these three is built up from a series of carefully chosen and extraordinarily telling incidents to a dramatic climax which will be remembered long after the book is set aside.
March framed the novel as ?a study in paranoia” and to the end of his life considered it one of his strongest works.
