He rents a bedroom in a small Southern town to be closer to his friend, Spiros (Chuck McCann), who is also deaf. John attempts to strike up a friendship with Mick (Sondra Locke), the teenage daughter of his disabled landlord (Biff McGuire), and meets the town drunk (Stacy Keach Jr.). Later, he helps Dr. Copeland confront his failing health."

Give us a review, then, of the book (not the movie).  FWIW, we don't believe that you read anything but comic books as a teenager.  You were not exactly an English language prodigy, and the subject matter of Carson McCullers' books doesn't sound like anything you would ever read.
