Lepper, p. 229. Set in the East Texas town of Charity, the novel is an elegy for the place Goyen left as a boy: Charity "is really Trinity, Texas, truly, accurately described," Goyen said later in life. Reginald Gibbons, Goyen's literary executor, called The House of Breath a "spangled fish," shimmering and elusive, in an afterward he wrote for the book's fiftieth anniversary. Goyen began writing The House of Breath aboard an American aircraft carrier in the South Pacific during the Second World War. After the war, he published several short stories and was awarded the Southwest Review Literary Fellowship, which allowed him to complete the novel. N. B.
