The dust jacket has minor wear, edge tears and soiling. Set primarily in North Carolina, Early from the Dance is a Southern novel in the grand tradition - a spellbinding story, beautifully told, about characters who fix themselves indelibly in our memory. Set on the North Carolina Outer Banks, Payne's second novel, Early from the Dance was a Literary Guild selection. Reviewing for The Boston Globe, critic Richard Dyer called Payne, "a defining voice for this generation. Reading stretches of Early From the Dance is like attending a play in which every line is a curtain line. Payne has the deepest human sympathy for his characters and knowledge of the heart; everyone in this book comes alive." David Payne is an American novelist and memoirist. He is the author of five novels and a memoir. His first novel won the Houghton Mifflin Literary Fellowship Award. Payne has published in The New York Times,[7] The Washington Post, the Paris daily, Libération, the Oxford American and elsewhere and has taught at Bennington College, Duke University and in the MFA Creative Writing Program at Queens University of Charlotte. Adam Jenrette, thirty-one and a successful Manhattan artist, has been hiding from his past for too long. When a relative's death calls him home to North Carolina, he is pulled into an intense encounter with his own eighteen-year-old self and with the two most important people in his life -- Cary Kinlaw, his best boyhood friend, and Jane McCrae, the girl they both, disastrously, loved. And as he relives one incredible, heartbreaking summer from thirteen years before, he dares to recover what he changed his life to lose. Derived from a Kirkus review: Payne offers a southern chronicle that works over its materials for too long and finally turns tiresome. Adam returns home and jump-starts his long-ago affair with Jane; he and friend Cary, a suicide, both loved her years ago: "We stood there a minute, hesitating at the gate of Memory Lane." Jane: "That was then, and this is now." With that kind of profundity, the narrative moves between Adam and Jane, past and present. Adam's bond with Cary, based on "the lost cause of our fathers," and his attachment to Jane, whom Cary loved first, is milked until it bleeds. We flashback often to their early college years, climactically to a wild summer: Adam and Jane work at a resort and become entangled with jaded Cleanth (a manic-depressive who has stopped taking his lithium) and his former lover Morgan. After trying "to collapse twenty years of living into a single summer," Jane and Adam take refuge from the adult-infested world in each other's arms (Adam has attempted to be loyal to Cary) before a distressed Cary arrives, discovers the truth and kills himself: "He seemed like a sage who served a long apprenticeship, but whose only wisdom was despair. . ." Only one ending is possible for this long soap-opera: Adam and Jane, having weathered their death-haunted grief, complete their stroll down Memory Lane and end up in each other's arms. A coming-of-age novel that manages to touch upon many a cliché of southern literature. There's a lot of evocative writing, especially concerning the ambiguities of growing up in a difficult time, but even long stretches of elegant wordplay can't make up for a plot that is not developed so much as filled out.
