At the center of Tennessee Williams' third novel, Moise and the World of Reason, is the need of three people for each other. Moise, an impoverished and quixotic young painter with a gift for unfinished canvases; the narrator, a young man from Thelma, Alabama, who is determined to be a distinguished writer; and Lance, the man whose intensity and sensuality held them all together while he lived, and whose absence gives the novel its strange and haunting power.
